Wonderful Rita! I think the red tomato is particularly good and those cut views scream “juicy”!!!!! The thing that bothers me is that the leaves and the green tomato look too similar. I would expect multiple highlights on a tomato, but I don’t think of tomato leaves as being shiny and I would not expect them to have so many strong highlights. They look more like basil leaves which would work for a summer theme, but I still would tone down some of the leaf highlights.
Hi Doug- as usual, you are correct- those are basil leaves and I did not notice the competing highlights but anyway, thanks for pointing that out and I am going to tone them down

I love this composition. My eye wanders around and then lands on that juicy red cut-open tomato.

Wow Rita – I am late to the party but look at what you’ve done! I recognized the basil right away. This looks awesome. Way to go. Now I’m hungry.
