Greetings from the Critique Club.

First impressions are that the lighting is too harsh and the subject very complicated.

Technically the lighting seems to be the biggest issue. Is it flash lighting? There is nice separation from the background but it is very harsh indeed. The colours are also a little muted.

Artistically the fruit is arranged in an awkward manner that means we struggle to focus on anything in particular.

In summary this has great potential but comes across as more of a snapshot, something DPC voters tend to frown upon.

Feel free to PM me if you have any queries.
Gerry

a really nice image i would have boosted the colors to make them really pop the yellow banana's look a bit dull the oranges are great and the kiwi too so maybe just the bananas could have been tweaked a 5 from me
