Jon, this is my kind of shot! I love backlit subjects! It looks good as is but I'd like to see how it looks with a slight CCW rotation so the pod is pointing more towards the URC. Also with a tighter crop and the branch on the left removed completely so just the stem attached to the pods remains.

I agree with Ken - the backlighting really makes the pod pop. Excellent sharpness, detail, and background. I could see a slight CCW rotation, though I would keep the main stem. :) Well done.

Backlighting makes it look very good! Agree that some CCW rotation might look better, but this is very nice as presented.

Sweet light Jonathan!!! I could go with the rotation just for comparison......this is just fantastic! Simple with great light!

Beautiful backlighting on this pod! Ken's suggestions sound good to me. Very nice bg in LRC; wish UL were the same. I like this unusual subject.
