 Ohh I wish this one was advanced editing. Trying to get the can pin sharp but not have big pours showing on the skin was proving difficult post shot.

This was the 3rd or forth I tried. Thanks to Lutchenko for his patience with all the ideas that did not work

Not much editing on this one. Straighten, crop, levels, resize, border, save for web

Great Idea, But IMO it would probably score Much higher if the apple was more visible... most voters (probably like 80%) only look at the pictures for a fraction of a second then place their vote... I bet that a large number of voters didn't even see the apple... I really like the idea, i'm giving you a 9/10. Great Job!

I think this could be a ribbon winner if the voters take time to appreciate it.

Love the creativity! Not as fond of the strong upper/lower border though. Still, a great shot!

Might had been better if the can were just an apple. Good idea though.

After looking at it longer, I think it is an apple with just the top of a can on it. Unfortunately, it is not immediately apparent so it looses some of its effect.
