Nice colors and depth, the blurred spot in the front is distracting, if it weren't for that, this would have been very nice. 5

The subject is interesting to me. Nice texture on the sides ... I don't know, I think I would have used just a bit more DOF to get the whole subject in focus, and tried an angle from down below a bit (probably without being able to look through the viewfinder!) to make the composition more unusual.

DOF seems too shallow?

You focused on the wrong part of the apple. The big blurry smudge in the center spoils it.

I find it distracting that the stem is blurry and the apply is blurry in the center. It's not easy to get round things all in focus with a shallow DOF...

It's distracting to me that the middle of the pic is out of focus.

Nice DOF - Blur in center is a bit distracting. It may be more interesting if the blur was more towards the edges. 6
