I said some time ago in a comment on a picture of your girls that you have the eye of an artist. And so said Roman just yesterday. Today YOU have confirmed that faith! The artist is not just in your "eye" but deep in your soul! You are letting it out in this absolutely wonderful and beautiful photo. The composition, the lighting, the post processing are all superb! Good for you! I am so proud of you!

@Bill: Thank you so much, Bill! You made my day! :) I put a lot of effort into that photo shoot... it was over an hour of trying different angles, lighting and even including my girls (more to come) to get something creative and satisfying... It wasn't easy, I tell you that! But, I had so much fun.
Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States
Wow..........Magda, this is wonderful, of a fruit I've only eaten once in California. We have a friend there who makes Pomegranate cookies.
Now we'll be waiting for more from this SUCCESSFUL photo shoot!

This has a very lively look to it because of the tilt and the strong lighting also grabs attention. I like the refreshing approach, Magda.

First time ?? Really a great success Magda. Love composition and tones.

@Evelyne Dubos: Thank you for your support! Yes, my first time with food or first time just purposely arranging objects... I enjoy taking portraits and candid shots of children but I want to improve my photography skills by challenging myself with something totally different. It isn't easy but I trully enjoy it! :)

I love the level of red in this - and passionate about the pomegranate! Nicely done!
