November 5: Lemonade Anyone?

Rancho Bernardo, CA

I liked the sun reflecting on the fruit. My debate was whether to crop the image to include the OF view of Battle Mountain with its cross.

I agree its a beautiful shot as is;).Maybe a crop on the bottom to remove the fence?

This shot is a winner.
I would not change it.

I like it as is. I would however prefer it if these were limes.

I like this as it is........I believe the cross adds to the image.........well done.
Karen Leaf06-Nov-2005 03:15
To continue...
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.

Leave it as is. Love the sharp focus on the lemon (I thought they were big limes) and the mountain.

I like it very much the way it is.
CJ Burianek06-Nov-2005 02:25

I think I meant "Nicely balanced just like it is."
Gayle P. Clement06-Nov-2005 02:17
Nicely balanced the way they are.

Love the shot as is! Fabulous DoF! And gorgeous shot of the lemons!

The cross looks fine from here.
Elaine (etfitz)06-Nov-2005 00:53
I love lemons! I like the view too!
Guest 06-Nov-2005 00:41
I like your image the way it is. I think is a very nice composition in 3 planes (the lemons, the palm trees and the mountain with the cross) The cross in the middle of the palm trees is well placed. And yes great lighting!!
Gail Davison05-Nov-2005 23:03
Here we are with a cold night and fireworks (the sign of the start of winter for me) and there you are putting up photos of palm trees and fruit. It's just not fair...... :-)
Dan Chusid05-Nov-2005 22:13
Don't crop those lemons!
...they don't look ripe yet.
;^)

It works as is Robin. Those are delicious looking lemons.
Guest 05-Nov-2005 21:36
nice and juicy!
Guest 05-Nov-2005 21:26
May I take all?? :)
The background with dof emphasized the beauty of these fruits.. :)
northstar3705-Nov-2005 21:14
I'd crop the lemons and squeeze them.
