in our garage, you can find screws and apples, but also other stuff (which i didn't use).
i desaturated the blues, cyans, reds and magentas and kept the greens and yellows.
white paper used as background. contrast and brightness optimalized. one lightsource used to create the shadow. + use of a tripod.
hope you like...

I think for sure some of the voters did not follow the rules of voting on this picture because of the desaturated colors. Thinking this could not be right in basic editing. You should have had a ribbon for this one!
From the rules:
If you feel a photograph has violated the site rules, you may click the "Recommend Disqualification for this Picture" link and enter your reason why. You should then vote on the photo as if the rule was not broken, and leave the determination up to the administrators.
This was a breath of fresh air amid all the wrenchs and tires and such, thought it would've been a top 10'er, but top 20 isn't bad either. Beautiful picture, was my favorite of the bunch!
I was not sure about if this was with in the rules when I looked at it first so I found out how this can be done by desaturateing in the forums. My only 10 and probably top 3.
Although this is a technically good photo, I don't really get it... It's unique and looks appealing enough for me to score it high, but it's not visually appealing enough to make me give it a top score. (Plus I do find it kind of strange...)
How very creative and eye catching! This is definetly one of my favorites! I think the desaturation effect you used works very nicely here and the shadow really adds to the shot. Well done!
I love it, I think people may score it down as you don't oftten find Apples in the garage.. unless they are rotting in a bin maybe. time will tell! 10 from me!
How did you get everything but the green apple B&W, hope you did it legally
Nice shot and great idea... not quite sure what it represents, if anything at all.
