I like this! The simple color harmony is very nice, and the reflections and black bacground add a neat touch.

Very cute setup! Love the reflection... as others pointed out, a boost in the fruit brightness would be helpful here. I didn't get it at first with the title, but as soon as you 'see it'... you can't miss it.

Nice clean background and good refections, i would have scored it higher if the fruits were a little brighter to make the colours stand out more against the background

Nice, I like the reflections.
however I think that the lighting is a tad bit flat (at least it looks that way on my monitor)

Nice. I like the sharpness and the idea. The colors are nice together. The hint of reflection is just right. It might be a tad dark or that may just be my monitor. Overall it's very good.

YAY! Awesome xoxo's! Just a bit more contrast/brighter fruit would have helped this be even better.

Cute! I like the reflection but the surface seems a bit dirty.

I have been wanting some starfruit for ages, I never see them at the store. Maybe they aren't common in the west? I dunno.

Seems a bit dark and flat to me on the colors.

composition is a bit too centered ... I understand trying to get the reflections in the shot ... but that leaves too much negative space above the fruit (IMHO) ... just looks slightly unbalanced ...

I love the shapes of these (and like the reflection too) - but the lighting is a little dull and really doesnt show off the great colors. 5
