 This taught me two things: Patience and Persistance. I took over 100+ shots for about 6 pretty ok choices, and only 2 were really up to par. So, if you are planning on doing a shot like this be sure to:
1. Be well rested.
2. Have a drink
3. Be near a bathroom (in connection to #2)
4. Bring lots of towels.
5. Bring lots of water.
6. Light that sucker to death.
7. Have more then 1 battery charged.
8. Try and try again.

I hope this goes over well, i hope there arent tons of entries like this..

Other than being a cliched splashing fruit picture, I can't find anything wrong with this shot.
Nice job.

Very nice composition, black background gives nice contrasts to yellow.

Not voting just commenting. Nice idea, but technically lacking.

You wouldn't see a photo with movement usually in a food magazine but I like it. =)

not even a magazine art director would throw a whole lemon into a martini glass. besides that, lemons are not healthy per se, mostly not when eaten with peel
