 Taken in the dark on long exposure while manually firing flash from about a metre above the subject. When I was a kid the name crabapple always conjured up a image like this in my mind. I know I will get canned for the stalk coming out of the crab's head but the shot looked a little bare without it.

Good sharp focus.Is it really live? I find it too deep. It should be on top of the apple to give feeling that it's live. Good Luck.
