[Brian Baptie]

Whatever it is, wonderful shot!!

[Cassandra Hoffmann]

Pomegranate? Nice macro :)

[Rick Schies]

[summerfield]

i'm with cassandra, a pomegranate, the bottom of it. nice details. wonderful shot and i like that circular framing from the extension tube.

[Livia]

I'd guess pomegranate as well. Love the details and lighting! Great shot. 8)

[Ramesh Chand]

same Whatever it is, wonderful shot!!......there is a but on the mashroom and shadow is fantastic.....

[Linda Torrence]

I think it's a Pomegranate also, what I like is the color, shading and the neat little top on it. Great shot!

[Allison Williams]

Definitely something organic. I think I'll add my vote to pomegranate. Creative shot. Got us all thinking.

[Kimmi]

pomegranate? Neat macro

[Katie]

Great drama with the lighting! I'm going with fruit, but I'm thrown off by the stem shape ...

[Kerri]

Nice lighting

[Diana Moss]

Maybe the top of an apple.???

[Howard Steele]

yep pomegranate i see they are being sold in shops as a fruit out here now for years they were just considered ornamental plants..they are just such an effert to eat but i bet the girls love them

[Margaret Tryon]

I cheated and read what everyone thought. I'm on the pomegranate team. What a shot Alia. Incredible.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

It's very cool looking and I have no idea what it is.

[mihaela oprisan]

interesting!

[davide]

I can't figure out what it is. Love the light here

[Carolyn White]

I'm guessing a fruit. Awesome macro! :0)

[Ellen E]

well, number one: it's a cool shot. I really like the use of light. I have no idea what a pomegranate looks like. I was going to guess dead flower on a railroad spike.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I'd have to agree with all the pomegranate guessers- it's what I thought of at first glance. Nice macro.

[Bobbyj]

great lighting and macro! it does look like the top of a pomegranate

[Juanita]

Wonderful closeup - love the moody lighting.

[Netkonnexion]

Congratulations to the pomegranate guessers! @ozziehoffy @summerfield @myautofocuslife @granny7 @allie912 @kimmistephens @steeler @maggie2 @olivetreeann @bobbyj @netkonnexion

@steeler The girls do like them - they chew them to get at all the seeds, and spread the juice as far as possible around the house :)

@archaeofrog @snowy @cjwhite Close with the fruit guesses, but no banana... or pomegranate :)

[jerry plume]

Great capture! Love the texture!

[cglist]
