Photographer’s Note

••• Fruit dot Com •••

I took this picture at night when I was on Tajrish Square (Tehran).
There are many fruit stores there which sell the fruits and vegetables in their traditional style.
They use powerful lamps that made the fruits colors more attractive for customers.
I made some pp jobs on this picture including some auto adjustments on Photoshop CS2 and cropping and framing and also some finishing on Corel Paint Shop Pro X 10 for decreeing the effect of lamps on my lens.
Hope you love it.

Best Wishes,

Javad.

Hello Javad

This is really a myriad use of colour, excellent.
Composition works great, those "shoppers" get a lot of good attention. I particularly like the expressions on their faces!
The photo is slightly grainy, maybe a little out of focus but it might just be me.
I feel the light in this setting is good, the fruit looks natural and actually very inviting.
Thank you for sharing.

adnan (544) 2006-11-30 7:51

wow! it seems to be a shaky shot. or, you used your lens's widest aperture so the depth of field is shallow. the people are watching TV? or they are watching something very interesting on the street? dont know! whatever.....its a good shot. i love its colour.

Wanda1 (10923) 2006-11-30 12:02

Hi Javad,
There is quite a selection of fruit to choose from here. Nice bright colours, a very eye catching shot. Like the expressions of the people.

Hello Javad -

This is a nice colorful image and it is well exposed considering the lighting conditions. The composition, IMO, is OK but I think I might have cropped from the top just a bit to remove the light tubes. Also, the image looks like it might be a bit soft.

Thanks for sharing

Click3 (1871) 2006-12-02 15:03

Hola Javad...and here we have the full arcoiris in a beautiful display. Lovely scene with those gents adding to the mood.
A bit soft...but considering the difficult conditions a fantastic result.
Saludos from Chile, Robert

very beautiful colorful shot,I like the different expression of those mens I just ask myself what are they looking to,alsoe way of hanging the banana and the colors of watermelon,pitythe sharpness not strong.

pari_ali (425) 2006-12-14 15:17

Uma foto exuberante, multicolorida e que convida à fotografar...afinal é um cenário que chama atenção pela sua beleza, cor e sabor...eu não vivo sem elas. :)
Parabéns e grande abraço,
Vera.

a_i_ren (1315) 2006-12-19 7:23

Hi, Javad
Priceless expressions on those man's faces! Surrounded by all this round colorful shapes they seems to be distracted by something they may be not very happy about. Looks like a movie scene -very intense.
P.S. Thanks for the photo with seasons greetings :-)
Have a great 2007!
Regards
Inna

tsemin (316) 2006-12-30 6:12

rafid76 (2611) 2007-01-18 5:00

this is a fantastic photo, but i think becuase you did allot of post process you damaged it allot, it way to pixelate, noisy and the colors are too staurated and not natural, never the less your compostion is phenominal. try reducing noise in CS2

DLM (6447) 2007-10-16 8:46

A very amazing shot Javed,well seen and captured,
