15/365: orange mandarine in a dark background - still life

This is my attempt to 365project.org challenge #89 which I must take a picture combining dark and orange tags. I've decided to pickup again my DIY lightbox, I've put a black cardboard as background, I've illuminated from both sides with 2 read lamps, and I've put few mandarine oranges as part of my still life picture. I've split in two pieces the ugly one. I've taken some pictures and this one is my candidate.
You fullfilled the challene very well! Amazing details and contrast.

This caught my eye as the colors pop right out at you. I like your set up information, as I am here to learn ;-)

@edk Thank you, you can check my exif, then you can see my camera settings. I usually don't hide that. On the other side a bit of post-processing working with levels (contrast, brightness), sharpness and saturation of colors (to push up it a little)

Very effective. Black backgrounds always look smart and the contrast with the bright mandarines is beautiful. I like the arrangement too.
