Fuyu Persimmons
edited copy of p1190941
These persimmons grew on a tree in my mother-in-law's yard in central Georgia. I placed them in a white bowl on top of a piece of white felt, while trying to learn how to take high key photos. I'd appreciate any suggestions as to how the image might have been improved.
Camera was hand held and set on normal program. No flash, only the natural light in my sunroom. 16.2 mm, 1/50, f/3.6, ISO 100
Post editing done with Picasa 3: added fill light, removed some of the blemishes on the fruit, cropped to an 8x10
