I love dragonfruit! Used to eat them in Singapore. The striking appearance of the fruit and the fact that it is relatively unknown in non-tropical areas makes this an excellent featured picture in my opinion.

The vast majority of pictures of a pitaya on Knowledge (XXG) are not of a high quality, so I thought I would contribute one that is. High resolution, detail and EV.

Sorry, but I hate the shadows in both. Natural shadows or no shadows, in my book.

Thanks, have reduced and softened the shadows so that it's less distracting. -

I was wondering how would the image look like with a black background?
90: 58: 354:
A lot less work to get things right in camera re: shadows though!

Actually, agreed. I think I'd prefer it without the "shadows".

Thanks, have fixed this so that they are visually balanced. -
