Fruit for thought

I tried to use the contrasting colours of purple and yellow fruit from my fruit basket to make some intriguing images.  However, the pictures are not as dynamic as I thought they would be, but they are interesting.  I learned that fruit are actually hard to photography, especially when placed on top of a reflective table top.

Below are two pictures of the same subject.  

You can see how the slightest change in lighting can modify the final look of a photo.
