is a good concept .. I don't think it has been pulled off here. The flesh of the orange is quite blown with the light piecing the eye when looking at the picture. Its incredibly centred, and doesn't benefit from that. With the other pieces of fruit behind an interesting array could have been made.

I think it would have been better with sharper focus

Good idea. Nice backlighting. Love the detail of the orange.

i think i would have liked this more if the lighting was more even. the brightness of the one quarter is a little harsh.

Nice colous but the backlight is too harsh and the big highlight is too distracting.

The bottom left is a bit blown out on my monitor. Still looks good!

Good attempt. A diffuse light would have stopped over exposure in the lower left.
