You're having a lot of fun with this, aren't you? And I'd say you've become very adept at doing this. Love the contrast with the yellow and the black background. Very classy! #1175799

Jeff, this is soooo cool. When we get together next Tuesday you better be prepared to help me learn how to do this type shot or no desert for you! :o) #7911132

Way COOL.... really like this one also. the Lemmon looks great just don't like the blue lines I find them a distraction. #7912022

Jeff E Jensen September 03, 2009

Thanks Debbie! This is actually the same blue background as before, just modified a bit after the fact.

Dale - you're on, though you'll need to come up with a better threat than no dessert, I'm not a sugar/sweets kind of guy.

Thanks Rita. I have to disagree with you on the blue lines, I think they are interesting. #7912105

This is probably my favorite of your splash series Jeff, its very crisp and the yellow of the lemon and the whites in the water look great against the black...I am with Rita about the blue lines though, I don't think they bring anything to the image since they are so far removed from the focal point.. #7912916

this is very cool! love the contrast of colors but I feel like this is playing tricks on me. it feels like it's leaning slightly to the right... maybe I just need to tilt my head to the left to look at it :-) #7913158

Jeff E Jensen September 03, 2009

Alright, alright, here's a version with the blue lines gone.

I think it looks better with the lines in, I tried to explain that to Rita but she just wouldn't listen.. #7913411

You must really be having fun making a mess with water.
I liked the blue lines. I think it gave the photo a bit of character.
I love the stark contrast of the yellow lemon against the black background. #7913421

Ok Tony I guess next time I will have to listen to you better, because I can see the blue lines do add an interesting touch. ok all ready.....:) you win Jeff!!! #7913487

Jeff E Jensen September 03, 2009

Thanks all!

I'm glad you all finally came around to see mine and Tony's point of view :o) #7913838

Aimee C. Eisaman September 03, 2009

Awesome capture and I like how it's a darker image other than the lemon....I think it should have been brighter. And I love the blue lines....they go so well with yellow! :~0 #7914001

Debbra Bailey September 04, 2009
