Good concept and composition - I think the overall image would have greater impact if the apple seemed fresher to contrast with the razor blade, though (although I realise that if you take as many shots as I do this would involve having about a billion "backup" apples on hand).
Ugh, our local school checks halloween treats for 'stuff' and found quite a bit of bad things. So I wonder if this is an urban legend, or a fact. Either way, Im giving all the benefit of the doubt this week, so the technical part...The focus and clarity are good, and the angle and framing/cropping are good as well. a very nice shot. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~
Ohhhh yes...I've heard of it but never saw it, nor do I know of anyone who ever found anythng like it. Qualifies as a contender in this challenge. Nicely lit, and exposed, and focused. Good luck! Grayce aka Gracious :-)
If that is a razor blade you are horrible anc cruel. Your title rather indicates I am correct about what is in the apple. I do not feel this is a legend or a superstition. I still think this is horrible but it is a quality shot photo wise so I can't honestly give it less than a 4
ouch!! challenge -- met technical -- nice sharp focus and just little reflection, good. like the color of the apple. would like to see the background in white to make the apple pop just a little more. composition -- also well done. -- gr8photos
I do not know that much how to vote this one. the challenge says 'well know legend' ... hard to juged that as well .... 7 for the quality of the shot and the intention even if it's not a 'well known urban legend' .. well maybe it is ... but not to me ;-) Lionel
Technically, a well done photo--emotionally, it pushes all the buttons you wanted---in reality this happens all too often---Its a good reminder of how vulnerable our children are and what kind of sick people there are around the corner.
Nice and original interpretation of the challenge. The image itself is pretty sound as well. (Would have been better on a plain white background.) seasick - 7.
The background color selection here is a good one, somehow it makes me feel all antiseptic and creepy - makes me imagine the environment where a creep might actually DO something like this. I wish though that the apple were "just-cut fresh"; I guess you worked with it for a little while. For me the dulled white is too close to the color of the background. Also, I think it would be more effective if the focus here were RAZOR sharp. 5, just-married
Now I got it! Thanks for explaining... 7 - KAOS I think your photo is well done, sharp etc., I like the bright red! - but if I'd stick an razor blade in an apple - wouldn't I do it the other way round? I have no clue, never thought about (and - here the razor blades look very different to yours...;o)
