Yeah, nice work. The shadow at the top LHS is a bit distracting and I would have turned the top green apple so the core is not showing, not its best side atm.

I hate to say it ... but this just didn't move me
seems flat and jumbled ... greater dof may have made a difference

*I am only commenting, and not voting on this challenge*

yup, those sure are apples. A rather bland photo lacking contrast and focus. The composition is hurried, and the glare from your lighting is going to really hurt you in voting. You've got the colors right, but not much else I'm afraid.

Safe idea, but the colors don't really 'pop' out to me like one would want from a challenge like this.

Softer light, apples filling the frame, and if it were a bit sharper along with a touch more contrast, you would have won me over. This photo meets the challenge, but falls short of being a #1. 4

would look better if the background light did not blow out a piece of each apple.

3 - Good potential. Like the tight crop/composition. Reducing the glare/reflections, perhaps a different colored background and sharper focus, make this better in my opinion.
