look like you sprayed the apple i like the red n green cause its contrast but there is someting about it that nags me. the background is not appropraite for a shot like this. if you had a low key lighting or black background this would have been excellent and been in the top 10 but i give you a 6
A very smooth meld, much better than many. Sharpness is good. The brightness of the wood is very harsh, however, and distracts from the image. Try shadow/highlight correction to darken just that, and mute the reflection at the top of the apple somewhat.
Nicely done. Maybe a better base would of helped this score higher for me. Also the red apple is pretty well beaten up. I admire your ability to cut this so well. Good going.
