This challenge inspired me to do a small stock shoot of an apple with books. I got some looks when i spent nearly 10 minutes picking out just one green apple and one red apple at the grocery store :-)

I love the lighting on this one, but I have to say that the crop is driving me crazy. There either needs to be more dead space to the right or this needs to be centered. I would suggest centered, but I gave you an 8 because I really like the sharpness and the idea.
Clean and crisp. I really like that you used this side of the books rather than the binding. The thin lines of color compliment the apples really well. This was in our top 4. 9
nice and simple, white background is great and the red and green theme throughout is good, also like the choice to off center slightly and good lighting too - nice work :)
i like how clean and bright this looks.
love the apples too. <3
and the different height of the books...
composition is not bad either, though i think more space can be given towards the top and right side.
nice photo.
Well balanced image, reflecting school years.....My only problems is that, are they really grade 2 year books you have used in the image, as they look more like late primary or high school type books.....Still a great image
