KIWI!

Taken for Canon S5IS OOC Challenge - Green

and Our Daily Challenge - Wide Open

Wide open Kiwi and wide open aperture

 

Trying to get the translucent illumination of the kiwi slice but I had trouble finding a non-reflective surface to put it on. I finally ended up with one of those little plastic cutting boards, which is why there are all the little lines. I'll have to try it with a brand new one sometime and then perhaps it will just look solid around it. The other challenge is getting it evenly illuminated so there are not gradations in color around it. Of course, I could just select around it and replace the background in PSE, but since this was for a SOOC challenge, that wasn't permissible this time.
