Reflection on the apple itself is harsh (try a polarizer? that looks like daylight reflection, not flash), and the face seems slightly soft (try one stop smaller aperture), but the expression and story make up for it. Background is interesting without being distracting.
MMMm a red -ish apple :) It's so red and so saturated ( oversaturated ) that after wathing it for a while it looks plastic :) A nice lady. Overall a very nice scene. I would give it a 7 but I get an impression that somebody overdid ps. I might be wrong if that's the case I am terribly sorry. 6. After voting on all of them i bumnp it up to 7
Very nice back drop. A very appropriately dressed model. It looks like the lighting on the apple and the area surrounding the apple was a bit too bright. I gave it a 6.
I really like this... cropping is perfect and the light is slightly brighter around the apple.
It tells a story beyond the apple. It shows (to me) the person that sells the fruit and her little world (with the background). An excellent environmental portrait.
