[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is Malaysian King of Fruits, the Durians, meaning thorny or full of thorns. On the outside it has really prickly sharp thorns, but inside you have a pulpy yellowish sweet aromatic and fragrance flesh. Such a wonders to may, but some really dislike it for the deep penetrating smell.
now it is durians season .. you can see them being sold by the roadside near the orchards.
Great taste to the locals but to some Europeans they say that they dont like it.
Bona Apetite!

Hi Foozy!
Oh, what a splendid color composition you realized here. Sharpness and color reproduction are really great.
Congratulations.

Hi Foozi!
Great photo of these beautiful fruits.
I have never tasted this fruit but I have tasted some durian sweet and I didn't like the taste. But of course the sweet isn't the same thing than real durian so I would like to taste a real durian.

Best wishes,
Eino

Assalamualaiokum Foozi. This is one fabulous creation from a simpler subject into one stunning composition. The texture of the durians itself id so unique and you have captured the whole load of truck of them in contrasting red lines. The diagonal lines make this an excellent image. Well done and best regards. Jusni
