I think way too much is going on in this photograph... the fruit could be more tightly cropped. Also, the burned parts of the photo are quite distracting.

Pitches? Mm! Yummy! I like your idea and how you have placed the fruit into about the middle of your depth and how you have framed the fruit with the leaves. I like your natural colors as well. I think some cropping could make the photo even more interesting. I believe the is to much negative space below which takes interest away from the peaches. I think a crop of about 2/3 of that space below would look more interesting. There is a slightly distracting white spot on the upper margin. A careful crop could take care of this problem as well.

A very good view with shadows, focused and framed to show the healthy looking fruit awaiting lots of sun. Bet they are tasty when ripe and ready to eat.

This is interesting especially to those that know these are in season. I like the perspective you chose. It is well framed but a bit dark. Could be upload.

Comment from jrconrad


Nice idea. The composition is very nice. Focus nice and sharp. I'm not sure why the fruit is in the shade. The eye is drawn away from it to the leaves near the top. Cheers, JR
