i like your use of desaturation. i feel, however, that there is too much space on the bottom rlght. the apple by itself isn't strong enough to activate that space. (6)
Wow! The bubbles are so clear and the water by the apple has such a glassy sheen...brrr...I can feel my toes getting wet and cold reaching for that apple! I like the contrast between the red, white and black. I also like the off center focal point and the multiple textures...just enough for the simplicity of the picture so that it draws your viewer in without becoming over stimulated. Nice job!
I like the whiteness and sharpness of the bubbles, and I like that you captured some of them on the apple. Well lit, like the squarish crop, and love the title.
