Curry tree fruit

Do you know curry tree? Mostly, it uses for cooking in Indian and Asian cooking as flavor and as well as herbal remedy. Even if you know it, you would not see the fruit. Unripe fruit is reddish and fully ripe fruit is black as it in the picture.

Fortunately, I had light green background which is good for a black image. Actually, I utilized banana leaf as background. The leaf had about 2 meter long distance to the subject. 250 mm lens was good enough to turn the background with better DoF. Therefore, you cannot find distracting spot or marks on the background. I used in-built flash to get better light on the subject. 1.3 m long distance was perfect to the in-built flash. I clicked the image by considering the rule of thirds. Stalk is not in focus due to low number aperture, and shallow DoF is not good for this image. Also, flash reflection on the fruit is another negative factor.

Camera settings are as follows:

• Aperture: f/5.6
• Shutter speed: 1/60
• ISO speed: 200
• Focal length: 250 mm
• Flash: Yes
