Pomelo series III by Bozack

Watch

I bought a pomelo fruit yesterday (Citrus maxima or Citrus grandis, also called "shaddock" and "pumello").

I wish I could take pictures with smell in them, it smells so good when you cut in it!

But damn, it takes a long time to eat (if you actually peels it, and don't want to eat any of the white stuff...)

I took a little series of photos of it - going closer and closer to the fruit

The whole series:

Awesome!
Does the Pomelo come in different colours then? 'cause i had one awhile back, but it was a pale orange colour...

Bozack Featured By Owner Apr 15, 2010 Student Photographer

they come in a pale white/yellowish (maybe orange, kind of

) and a pink color

I seem to have gotten one that's somewhere in the middle then

It did start out as a pale yellow.

haha alright - I've never seen that before.. but on the other hand, I didn't know pomelos existed before about a year ago

Corey-067 Featured By Owner Apr 15, 2010 Professional General Artist

I'll see if i can't get me another one of them, and this time i'll actually think to take photo's xD

Well this is interesting. I really have to learn how to shoot fruit! *My God that sounded wrong!*

Again, incredible detail, love the lighting and the deep saturated green is just so soothing. I will never look at a pomelo the same way again after this one, that is a fact. I will be cutting them open with my eyes and taking pictures in my mind haha!

Thanks

Too bad I can't find any pomelos in stores by now - they are out of season

You made me want one!

Haha, sorry ...

Meh, I was going to give a critique for this ( a good one, don't worry), but just realised you have to have a premium membership to do that. sorrry.
Anyway, as a short comment.
I think this is an absolutely beautiful shot. The lighting is gorgeous, and perfect against the fruit. I have never tried it, but I kind of want to now. You mention you wish you could make photo's with smell. But this photograph is so delightful that I think my imagination is allowing me to smell it anyway

. Great detail and macro shot. Bravo

(I love the other shots in the series too!)

It's still possible to give critique in the usual comments

they are the same words, and I get just as happy for them

No need to be a premium member only for the critique option

I'm glad you like it

thanks for taking a look

Yeah! Finally, somebody took a photo of my favourite fruit ; ) Usually, people don't even know what it is ^^ But this peeling... damn, the time you need to peel this thing you are actually hungry for two pieces : P
Cheers! : )
