This is a little _too_ minimalistic for my tastes. Perhaps a few drips of lemon juice or a lime on the other edge of the frame would have helped.

I love minimalism shots, especially when they are as nice as this one. Nicely done! Good luck!

Very nice. I like the highkey but I would have left a small amount of the image darker in order to save some of the detal.

Like the idea but ucertain about the background.
 04/29/2005 03:33:26 PM
Very fresh and clean. Nice, simple lines, good detail. Color looks a hair washed out to me, but I still like this photo.

Good idea and good picture, the only thing that weakens this is that more clear focus on the lemon would have made it a smash.

Great idea. Love the lemon on white. More "detail" (focus) of the lemon would probably be even better. Maybe its just my eyes! Love the composition and think its a great photo though, and very appropriate choice of subject.

Seems the lemon should be a more saturated yellow.... still an interesting composition and overall gj

I like!!

very nice, the white works well with the yellow.

Very harsh on the eyes.

make that fruit stand out a little more, make the skin darker?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/28/2005 04:54:51 PM
I like the lemon on the far side. Think this would work better with a small slice of lime or orange on the right

I think with the proper white balance, this image would have been splendid! But the white has a blue hue to it and I think it detracts from the image.

this is well done and a true definition of the challenge
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Love this image, makes me think of spring time for some reason......great photo
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/28/2005 01:25:56 PM
Great composition. But the main subject seems a little washed out IMHO...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/28/2005 12:30:21 PM
I like the simplicity of this photo, however the color seems a little bland. Perhaps a little increase in saturation would bump this up a little bit more. 9

Neat idea. Good, subtle use of color.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I would have liked to see just a little more of the lemon slice, but good concept :)
 04/27/2005 06:57:30 AM
very nice but leaves a sour taste in my mouth...just kidding. Very well done, wish I'd had the imagination to accomplish something like this. I would have liked a little more color in the lemon (seems washed out a little) but still a great take on the challenge.

great shot - it works for me
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/26/2005 10:56:03 PM
I'd like to see a bit more lemon.
 04/26/2005 09:33:54 PM
I just wish the colors were a little more vibrant. Try adjusting the levels/saturation/contrast to get the lemon to really pop out.
