Self-critique, and including the biggest points made by commenters. I'm doing this to try to improve for future shots.
The Good:
+ color color color! complementary colors w/ high saturation
+ interesting and sharp detail on the peel
+ the darkness of the peel provides contrast to the bright areas, and separates the red and green areas
+ lighting, the lime looks like it's glowing, and good balance between background and foreground brightness
The Bad:
- some red bled through the the lime
- border too bold
- little yellow highlights

Oooh, my second 6th place in a row! Whee!
Oh, and don't kick Eric! ;-) It's just me, searching for a fun title. It was originally a lime & lemon shot. Hence, "limon". |

| If the title isn't a typo, Eric deserves a kick. Great color, though the border is a bit much. |

| great color contrast, wonderfull definition, I really like this shot with only one small complaint. I dont like the tiney yellow dots on the bottom of the lime. One of my top picks. Keep up the great work. |

| I love this, the red showing through is perfect. Not crazy about the boarder (and I usually like boarders) I think it takes away from the pure red. Still very cool 9 with the boarder 10 without. |

| I guess this should have been a different tone of the red, doesn't quite go together, but i'll look at it again on a better calibrated monitor. White border is too bright imo. |

| I'm not keen on the border, but other than that it's a great macro. The red is a bit 'in your face' though, maybe a more subtle colour would have worked better? |
