Love the lighting. Not sure about the texture being on the red pepper, though...

Beautiful--I like the texture and the deep red goes well with that BG!

Danny... love the richness of color and painterly feel to this... I might like to see the highlights on the pepper masked off with about a 50% brush to make the subject "lift off" the background. Lovely colors and tones.

This is a terrific capture and use of a textured background, which I love to use as well. Two things: <> As a few others have suggested, remove some or all of the texture from the apple. <> I would also like to see a side shot of this as well, not a full 90 degrees, just a slightly different angle.

Well done!

I really like the color palette and the filter you used is very effective.
