I like what you were going for here, a nice simple still life. I think it could have been done a little more effectively though. I do not like the way the books pages are turned towards us because you can't see any deatail in them, this causes just a white corner. The strobe you used seems a little harsh on the apple, and I don't care for the way the light dies off on half the apple... just some suggestions.
Great composition. The apple on is a bit dark . If you were able to desaturate everything but the red of the apple , the piece would be more powerful. The framing works with this photo.
One of my favorites of the challenge. I love the colors and high contrast. Nice composition, too, with the book, the apple and the blackboard. Nothing about this that doesn't say "school". 10
One of my favorites in a very competitive challenge! I think this is technically excellent - great composition, lighting, tone, color, focus and border selection. I hope someday I can take a shot like this. I really like the way the colors complement each other but somehow remain subtle. Great job - very high score:)
I like this - especially with the double-meaning of the title. Basic math, but also basic (classic) images of school. Lovely composition, good rich colors - this is a great image to convey a sense of school and back-to-school.
Good tones and lighting, composition is well done too, technically a great shot i think, little lacking in 'WOW" but would be hard to wow with this challenge topic.
