Wonderful Mario.  Beautiful picture and the words match so well!

What a great idea that perfectly illustrates the verse.

Very clever!  Nice shot!  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

      Thank you all.

Such a simple and effective shot! Even I could do it  :D

Thanks, Smokey.
Your shots do stand out.
I like your style.

Deceptively simple.   But I note the precise lighting, with every element precisely placed.   Unless you did a great many of these until you found the perfect one, I'd say there was a lot of planning in this.

I agree with you there Barbarian!

Thanks Barbie,
I find it flattering when artistic eye scrutinizes my work. I do appreciate your keen observation.

You are absolutely right. There was a bit of optical planning required to be able to photographically execute
the appropriate image for the text.

I wanted a composition with the main subject standing out from the background and the surrounding elements. To effectively achieve that, I needed subdued but high contrast shades and shadows to exaggerate the ambient light illuminating the subject (tangerine)

The background did not just happen, it was picked to be there. The same thing goes to the red Christmas balls which were arranged to lead the viewers eye to the tangerine.

Yes, I took a series of shots from variable angles and different lighting techniques. About six of them or so.
Of all the shots, ........ this one stood out!
