Thirst for Knowledge with a Twist of Lemon

This is a photo of somebody having a drink of knowledge (Digital Camera Photography)with a twist of lemon on it, while doing some formal reading of a book on how to learn more on the subject,
the idea came to me after my wife Carol showed me a picture of jewelry being advertised, I thought what a great way to do Book smart.The lighting is natural skylight.

Raw file to Lightroom 1.3 as preset direct positive, adjustments & crop.

good set up. the color on the hand looks a bit unnatural

The composition is slightly lacking.. everything seems backed up into the corner with unrequired negative space in the forefront.. Better positioning and lighting would have helped.. and maybe not using a distracting back colour would be better..
