Hello Syd,

I didn't catch the original image so I'll only comment on the cropped version you share here.

Overall, it is a pretty good image. The first thing that jumps out at me is that you did not select flawless fruit for your image. Always manipulate the fruit so no blemishes are visible to the viewer. It needs to be a little sharper and the contrast needs a bump.

It isn't a boring image, but will have more impact with a few post adjustments.

Best regards,
Rodney

Thank you for the kind comments Rodney. I take your point about the need for flawlesss fruit with this sort of image. I will also try a bit more sharpness and boost the contrast as you have kindly suggested.

Best regards,

Syd
