Ah, lemons.. I remember doing a class which had the teacher saying 'go darker, you values are too light, especially in the shadow' It got to the point where I thought he was crazy, but I darkened it anyway, and he was right (surprise). Long story short, the colour yellow is a lot darker than everyone thinks. Can't comment on how you lemons are because I haven't seen the actual lemon and lighting set up, but the shadow values may be too light.
Not sure if it is the case either, but try dividing the page into the four colours and not having this fifth brown-yellow BG because it may throw off your colour judgement. Again, don't know if its the same for you, but the less colours you have interfering with one another the better you can simplify and really focus on the study.
Keep up the good work though :) and sorry if that was a little bit of a ramble
