Moderately lame idea, I know. I also know that it's not focused perfectly.
Simple shot. Crop, resize, removed what little color there was. NeatImage.
I "think" my reasoning is that wordplay is more fun than literal. 2, it's a simple composition that shouldn't offend too many people. And 3, I want to participate in as many challenges as I can so why the heck not.
Some might find the picture devoid of artistic merit, good for them. Hopefully, some people will like it because I think I do. :D

Wow. I got every single score. I suppose some people gave me a 1 simply because of the subject material. Since I meet the challenge and my shot is technically EXACTLY how I want it to be, this boggles my mind. But like I said, good for them.
Clever use of DOF, I admire the shot but still something is missing. It´s not really that interesting to me but this picture is technically very good. Excellent ligthing, good DOF and sharp as a whistle. (8)
Fun idea! Apple devotees are so dedicated. I would like to see the apple icon a bit more in forcus and the Z a bit softer. I like this and the thought you put into it. Nice job.
Nice idea, but your shot doesn't reflect the title in full: unfortunately apple sign is out of focus :-(
While inverting colors it would have been a better option to decrease output levels on the black side so that the final photo doesn't look so much overexposed...
