Don't come a lot faster than that! Nice idea and a pretty well executed shot. I think the blur is effective, but might have worked better on the 'understanding' level with hands on the apples. It must have been tricky to get the lighting right and, although a glossy apple is in many ways good, I think you've gone a little too far toward making it look more like plastic than food. It's very hard to get that right, I think.
I have to go to 6 for the fresh idea.
Nice sharp images for what appears to be a time exposure. I'll be interested to see how you did this, whether the apples were lifted up or more likely dropped at the end of the exposure, but I don't see what lifted or guided them.
Interesting take on the challenge. I like the concept behind it. The flash points on the bowl are a bit much and the bottom edges of the bowl seem to have "disappeared" into the black background. My eyes keep wishing there was another element between the apples to look at. Instead, its just empty space.
