I like this, the composition is good and the border adds some pop, but the purple in the upper right hand corner really crowds the shot. A simple solid colored background would really make it stand out

Yellow border is a bit over the top. I think tye image would have been better without it.

Another version of this concept is also in the challenge. This is a nicely composed take on the cliche. I like the lemons in the background at the bottom left, but what's that purplish thing in the top right?

I brushed past this as yet another 'slice' picture. However on revisiting, I really like your message. Well done! Bumping up to 7.

EDIT: Bumping again to 9.

Ordinary, safe subject... but nice execution. The pulp and water beads on the glass add a nice touch.

The POF and the back round colors work well here. Well cropped. Excellent job.

I like this photo. I think you could have done without the yellow border.

make lemonade! nice shot great composition -- the focus seems a bit soft (although all this yellow so far in the challenge is hurting my eyes) and I'm not 100% sure I'm digging the border. Great composition though, and good use of the shallow DOF to bring out the lemon on the glass.
