Something for the Weekend - Part 219 - Sold a lemon!

Thanks to all who took part in our previous 'bridge' challenge.

 

This week, I heard someone mention that they had been 'sold a lemon'. That got me wondering what images our SFTW team would make with such a subject. So here we are, I've  supplied the lemons, what can you make with them?

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

 

 

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

ON EDIT: Noticed a flaw in the comp, so I corrected it, 'cause I'm a derp.  😄

When you see it, you can't unsee it right?

Always nice to combine some old Ps effects with some new features 🙂

Ah, @GeekyGirlRex7295714, you are too kind! I've been looking at antique-look metal tiles for a dining room renovation and was so inspired!

Nice job Alan. There is indeed plenty of energy in a lemon as many schoolchidren learn when they make a battery from one. 🙂
