Oppose. This may cut it on Commons, but is not suitable for WP:FPC. The 'artsy' reflections on the shiny black background to me produce an awkward composition that adds nothing to encyclopaedic value. Seen in thumbnail as it is in the article the image is dominated by dead black space. For an encyclopaedia these type of photos are far better taken on a matte white background where the subject takes up the bulk of the frame. --jjron (talk) 09:35, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support – sharp and good lighting, but prefer slightly tighter crop. Bammesk (talk) 14:41, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support. The fruit would likely stand out more from a dark background than a white one. feminist (talk) 11:35, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
