crappy idea, my first try in reflections. Studio reflections that is. personally I prefer to go out of the house...
I used the glass plate of my IKEA coffe table, placed a dark-blue fleece blanket (wich grandma gave me) under the glass. plain and simple, sorry for the idea, but I was out of time :)

This is yellow. I don't feel moved by the shot though. The negative space although a good idea, is probably too much. Moving the lemon to the right some to add a little more balance on the left side would help equalize the framing. I think the horizontal placement is good. Your lighting is oversaturating the lemon. So much so that the details are lost. You may want to try bouncing the light off of a wall or ceiling, or diffusing it with a thing white paper or cloth. This will give you a more even lighting and allow more of the texture to show through. Your depth of field and post processing are both good.
I think that if you had more time to work on your lighting, the use of the mirror and the lemon could have created a wonderful shot, as it is, the lack of time available is evident.
Interesting lighting. Don't like the placement in the far left bottom. I would have liked it at the thirds or at the side with the top cut off or the right so that it wasn't in a square frame.
