All is good accept for white balance. A couple more Coronas to help it all go down, by the time I was finished I was passed out on the ground!

I really like the idea. I think the white balance is probably ok judging by the text on the cap, but you could probably make more impact if the background was white. That would make the lemon appear more yellow. Maybe boost the brightness. I love the composition, and the DOF. It is a really cool shot.

Thanks for the comments. I changed the white balance and added a bit more contrast to it.

I just wish it would come out white, not off white or orange. The cap turned pretty white but the background is still off.

what do you think?

I think the second one looks quite good, the w/b can make a lot of difference

I like it, but I think my brain wants to see the bottle, and lime in focus.
I dunno. I keep looking at the lemon
