I made fresh homemade lemonade for this challenge. I put the setting out on my lawn and used a bright light behind it,and then diffused it. I took a lot of photos and tried a lot of settings. This is ok, not exactly what I had in mind. I cropped and highlighted in Picasa.

I think some better focus on the lemons would improve this shot.

I suspect more sharpness might go a long way

Nice image - Nice idea and almost worked - Might have been great to get some sun gleaming in with flare. The out of focus plate and subject though is far too distracting for a still life image which is a shame as I see tons of potential in this shot.

I think maybe the grass takes away a bit of the focus on the subject. Maybe a flatter surface, or shorter grass would've helped.
