 Actually bought these peppers at the Farmer's market last week for the "Yellow" challenge. As you can see, they changed color on me.

Shot with softbox sb900 lower right and sb800 through an umbrella upper left with a silver reflector behind.

The peppers are sitting on black velvet.

Imported in LR, tweaked the exposure, recovery, blacks, clarity, vibrance and Sat. Also increased the sat of the green.

Then switched to CS5. Cloned out some dust spots on the velvet and a hair on the lime. USM. Saved for web. USM.

I love the compisition but the color on the citrus seems dull in comparison to the peppers

too bad for the quality of the background... It would have been even better with a completely black one

Fun idea. I love the color on the peppers, but I think the lime could have used a bit more color.
