 Kind of homework. Have to make a fruit shot with nice light and structure. Main restriction: it should be your unedited raw :-(

This one (at least the unedited original) completely failed. Color temperature seems to be around 2450, while my camera can't get lower than 2800. I don't have any studio lights (yet), so what to do? Luckily I have two weeks to go to find a solution.

Good image to photograph for macro-color ,textues,form --all good :0) An external flash ,bounce might make the color & shadows less harsh- but I really don't know enough to give advice ! Good for you -taking a class ???

I'm not sure exactly what you were trying to do, but I'll give some input, hopefully it helps. Besides the spots on the banana, the reflections off the banana and especially the spots on the steps upfront. If you're using a lamp or something similar, putting a paper towel or similar over it can soften it quite a bit. As far as color temperature, are you using auto WB? It doesn't look bad on my monitor here (laptop, calibrated but seems off a bit) but you can get it better by choosing the WB manually or using a gray card (or wall) and taking the picture and setting WB to that. If you have any questions, just send a PM.

Nice composition, the only thing, you seem to be losing some detail in the highlights.
