pomegranate

for my get pushed challenge from Ashley @shesnapped to photograph to photograph something round, like a ball or something ball shaped, and make the roundness of it very obvious, meaning it appears 3 dimensional in the photograph. Ashley will have to let me know if I was successful or not.
Hello Ashley @shesnapped. Here is the pomegranate, I changed it out because I processed it and didn't like it so this is without any layers. let me know what you think. thanks!

This one definitely has some dimension!

Out of curiosity, how did you photograph it?

@shesnapped I actually used my softbox covered halfway across with a blanket to close off some light. then I added additional white sheer fabric on the other half to shut down and spread out the light. there was a bit of window light in the room. I also had a white board on the opposite side of the pomegranate to open up the right side a bit as it was dark. I did have to lift a bit of shadow in LR too.

Wow! That was a lot of prep! I think between the spot of light on the left of the pic and the shadow cast by the stem, there's definitely dimension there! Well done!

You certainly captured its roundness!

A pomegranate — that's a good one for a round object, not one I would've thought of though I do have three of them in the house at the moment. You put a lot of careful work into this shot. Impressive!
