This is a good idea and the lighting is good. I somehow think that a suble border would balance the photo. -7

Very creative - especially with using a backlight. This makes the photo a step beyond the ordinary. I would give you the blue if it were up to me.

The unique lighting total makes the picture. I'm kinda partial to liking it because I love watermelon, but I think most would agree with me that it's quite an appetizing shot.

Very nice use of backlighting, I like it. Great colors against the black background. The trio of seeds withing the slice are a very nice touch.
