April 19th - Orange

Had a couple of ideas for today (ie: things in the yard) but the skies have been overcast off and on today. So I opted for a shot of an orange. I opened the kitchen door for ambient light and set out a tea towel for a backdrop. I started with two oranges, but I didn't think it worked as well as one. I took my picture then I cut it up the orange and ate it! I tweaked levels a bit in PS.

I think I see the attraction of all those egg photos I see in everybody's PAD!
