I remember hot chocolate and oranges outdoors from when I was a kid, preferrably sitting against a warm sunny wall protected from the winter wind. Hmm, have to go look if I can find that old thermos...
Wow, it wasn't until I read people's comments that this was an orange. I thought it was one of those plastic pumpkin buckets/bowls that kids use on Halloween to collect candy... that is to say, I don't have a sense of the scale of the tree! With no other objects in the frame to provide a size reference, I can't tell what it is.
However, the idea certainly fits the WA well... a fruit on a barren tree in a barren area.
Thanks everybody, I sure like to read your feedback

I thought the orange would make the scale obvious, but if it's not recognized as an orange, there might indeed be a problem with the scale.
But yes, it is an orange, and the tree is about 1 meter high
Looks like an orange to me. I like the way the dormant brush in the foreground is almost pointing to the orange as the focal point. I also like the shadows and lighting on the orange, and whole image! Beautiful setting!
, nice contrasts and surely 100% fits this weeks theme.
