 so i was at school when this idea just hit me, went to my girlfriends after school(its her plant) took her dads red blanket, got her little brother and his friend to hold it up for me. the lime snapped off so i superglued it back on. flicked some water on the lime and took a few shots. didnt take long until i got the shot.

Short comment because you are over 5.5

The picture works with the DOF and color contrasts, but the long stem without leaves, while going with your title, isn't that appealing to me.
