A melon?

This image has a subject but could use some sharpness. That's the beauty of Macro Photography to me... being able to see textures that ordinarily unnoticed.

cantaloupe or musk melon?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Is this a cantaloupe? There are several other similar photos in the challenge. This one needs better focus and more even lighting. Good idea for this challenge though.

I'm guessing cantiloupe again, but it looks different than the other I guessed that. Good texture but loses focus at the top.
