ain't simplicity grand? Love this. heck I'd frame it i think. I can see this at about 16x20. it looks nice and sharp, the lighting is fabulous, and the concept rocks. well done. P
Green Essence...sounds like a spice Emeril might use. Just joking. :)
Seriously, nice use of negative space to focus on the apple. Good color of the fruit and nice details in the skin.
I do have a problem with the coloration of the shadow. My eyes see a tinge of purple. No idea why you'd get a purple shadow when it should be gray or black.
Great lighting!!! I like how professional this looks. It's not the most exciting subject ever, but it's enticing. I want to eat it! I like how small it is too, glad you didn't blow it up more (though others may say otherwise). Technically, great. Interest, okay. Good job.
