Red Capsicum
Taking up on the suggestions offered on my onion FPC nom, I created this image of a red capsicum and a cross section. It has a high enc value and in my eyes is aesthetically pleasing with a clean white background and soft shadows

 * Comment. The moisture drops are a little distracting and detract somewhat from enc. It's a technically superb photo as usual, but it's a subject that can be reshot. Pstuart84 Talk 14:29, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support. Great quality and nice presentation (high enc with cut open fruit). --Dschwen 17:27, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support. I don't think the drops detract enough for me to change my support, though a lack of them would definitely help in the future. -- Tewy  17:44, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support Excellent photographic quality (seems easy, but it isn't). Support though I hate capsicum... Alvesgaspar 18:08, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support. High enc. Professional image quality, pleasant lighting. --Janke | Talk 20:33, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support. No technical complaints, and very good enc --⁪froth T C  21:15, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support. Your best 'product' type shot so far. Good work. Highlights still slightly blown but not at all in an aesthetically unpleasing way. Perhaps you could try softening the lighting slightly next time. How did you light it, for the record? Diliff  | (Talk)   (Contribs) 22:13, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh the lighting was nothing fancy (I need an umbrella flash!) - backlight with natural light, fill flashed with a shoe flash. I put tissue paper over the shoe flash to diffuse the light a bit. --Fir0002 22:43, 23 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Support. (Not that my support is needed, but I like it). High enc, nice lighting, good quality etc. -- Pharaoh Hound   (Merry Christmas!)  23:48, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support. Nicely done, like cross section and whole object together.  Noraad 02:13, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Brrrr, how can you eat that?..... Alvesgaspar 10:26, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Support. Mmmmmm... Yummy... Great picture! It's clear, it's big, its perfect! :-) Ilikefood 17:33, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support Great photo! -- Will Mak  050389  17:34, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support Great shot; I think it would possibly be good to get a cross section in the other axis as well! Leon 00:57, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Support. Informative, clear photograph that adds a lot. Though I'm wondering whether it would have been more interesting if the two halves of the photo depicted the same capsicum, though cut up in the first instance and then not cut up in the second. enochlau (talk) 05:26, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Just a thought, but this may show the variety of shapes for capsicum, short and tall... -- Will Mak  050389  13:56, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support A good shot, but the lighting is a bit too hard to my liking... Some bounced flash maybe? Also the water droplets doesn't add to the image. -- antilived T 10:00, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support; I cannot help but think that no background has worked to this picture's benefit. Image quality is almost flawless and details are great. Good work. -- Alt  iris   Exeunt  03:06, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Support. Well done on managing to use a white background without making the image seem fake or weird-looking. Detail on the objects is great, though I agree that the drops of water probably weren't necessary. They don't really detract from the image that much, though.

 * Support You must be bored from all the supports. ;-) | A ndonic O Talk 12:35, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * It's called a shoo-in, I think. -- Alt  iris   Exeunt  14:14, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Support Per all of the above. &mdash; Arjun  15:31, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
