Lined up fruit in various states. Lined up flashes and umbrellas to burn out the wrinkled background and reduce shadows and shot the shot. Increased blacks, contrast and saturation in LR. Exported, cropped and resized. Good luck to me and my team!

Nice colors, would've loved to see this picture taken from a different angle, maybe at level.

I would have cropped/left the lemon out and got a tighter shot.

I've never heard of 'Orange Squash' but it's a perfectly executed photo: 10

Very cool idea, though it looks like you cranked the contrast up a little too much, IMHO. Also the orange in the background seems a little out of place.

Quite bright - not sure if your shot this intentionally for high key, or edited it that way as you were trying different things. Either way it worked out.

the lemon at the very top lefthand side is a bit distracting, but still a nice shot 6

I think you could have come up with a better setup of the props. Everything looks too disconnected.

lots of citrus

I feel that the lemon could have been left out of the picture.

Feels very harsh.. over exposed/saturated.

Circle of citrus. Nice idea, but really flat.
