Oranges and Lemons by seanoneill

Oranges and Lemons

A shot by Tracy yesterday got me thinking, and this is one of several outcomes. I like what Tracy has done in her first few days (EDIT(back)) on 365.

SImply done, these are Oranges and Lemons where the white background has allowed me have a bit of fun and play about with the hue and saturation.

Tracy isn't new to 365... I think she just started over or something, or maybe she completed her 365 and instead of continuing under the same email, created a new account.

Pink lemons and oranges, how confusing!

@jsw0109 ahhh, I'm a typical bloke then Jeff, failed to ready the smallprint!!
March 22nd, 2012  
Oranges, lemons and purples! Interesting to see a different take on a familiar shape!

@stiggle Just giving you a look inside my head Anja :)

Very cool, love the colour
March 22nd, 2012  
Very cool!.....and purple is my favourite colour! ; ]
March 22nd, 2012  
btw...I like the new color of the fruit :)
March 22nd, 2012

@lizzy_lu123 @annbo @jsw0109 @cocobella Thanks all, a flippant shot. Captures my mood perfectly today!!

Nicely done, the branch adds an interesting detail to the photo.

I don't know why but this shot makes me angry. Don't get me wrong the colours are of a lovely shade and it is well composed, but I like my fruit the colours they are supposed to be. Ahhhhh purple citrus!!!!
March 22nd, 2012  
Good job they are different shapes to save any confusion! Thats quite a fun shot, like the composition.

@newbie Personally I think my pic today is rubbish. You see, yesterdays was craptastic imho, so I had to try harder today, hence the earlier comment about feeling flippant. So it pleases me that it has provoked a reaction from you. Your anger at purple citrus, has me ROFL. ;) I am expecting some billionaire to offer me millions for today's shot now. I'll cut you in, the criticism has doubled the price.
March 22nd, 2012  
@newbie But I can understand why other people see something positive in the shot......beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that.

Doesn't it give us a strange feeling seeing familar foods in an unexpected colour. Love this as a bit of art! The twig definately adds interest to the shot.

@jsw0109 busted lol thanks Jeff, it's true I have started a new project.

But on the subject of your picture Sean, you think it may be craptastic but I like it. Puprle is one of my fav colours :D
March 22nd, 2012  
Great idea and well done!
March 22nd, 2012  
@seanoneill You should title it "Angry citrus" and yes I will take half.
March 22nd, 2012  
So *that's* where pink lemonade comes from! ;)
March 22nd, 2012  
@tracywilliams Thanks Tracy, too kind. Btw, yours yesterday was good, I just wanted to be flippant today. I can see the bizarre and the fun in it.;)
March 22nd, 2012  
@esolvideosuk @reva @lagerdalek Thanks guys. Reva, you may well be right!
March 22nd, 2012  
@newbie The cheque is in the post;)
March 22nd, 2012  
@tracywilliams you had some great photos before, so I've been confused as to what happened.
March 23rd, 2012  
@jsw0109 Thanks Jeff, I did love all of my images as it happens I submitted my lightning shot into an art gallery today :) I sold 2 to stock images which is great too. I tried to do a clean out of my old account which caused a bit of a stir in the discussions tab. It left me feeling low about the whole project so I shut down my account. Proving to be completely addicted it didn't last long which led to my new account. I cherish every single follower comment and fav on my old account as I do with my new one :D I am a little upset that I let my emotion get the better of me as I have left behind 10 popular page images 2 top 20's and 460 followers. But you live and learn. :D

Great idea! I like the purple shades and, for me, the little stick really helps to pull it all together.
March 23rd, 2012  
Super clever photo
March 23rd, 2012  
Hmmm! Very interesting treatment! Not sure if the lemons would taste sweeter while being a sweeter color. ;D
March 23rd, 2012  
Heston Blumenthal would be proud.
March 23rd, 2012  
Great colour Sean...love the idea behind this one too :D
March 23rd, 2012
