 Based on Magritte's "Son of Man". Not going to win any points for execution, far too rushed, but hopefully voters will like the idea. Yes, I know.. you can easily see the fishing wire, once again time prohibited doing anything about it.

I don't like the yankees, but to be fair, it's an awesome shot

The cap gives the image a fresh look. I would have shot this outdoors with a cool plain blue sky. Bump.

It looks more like a tomato that an apple. Probably needs to be a stronger green to compete with the strong red of the tie and blue of the cap.

Nice idea, string shows a little but that means you didn't do any cloning or touch ups on the image...

I knew there'd be at least one tribute to Magritte. Well done, but a proper bowler hat would have scored 10.
