EXIF should be intact.

Very Appletising - nice capture not so sure about the crop - can't quite make my mind up about the amount of black above the apple.....

i like the crop but i hate those apples, they are mushy and the skin feels like wax.

thanks

this one wasn't mushy, was nice and crisp

Personally I would like to have seen more of the reflection and slightly less negative space above the apple.

Its also maybe just a little too simple for me, maybe if the apple had a bite out of it the tooth marks etc would have made for a more interesting picture.

It doesn't really say 'Dinner Time' to me either but it is a nicely lit well executed shot.

Thanks for the C&C. I'm still happy with the composition (but understand the comment), for me the negative space above makes the colour and vibrance of the apple a little more striking. I didn't want to include too much of the reflection or a bite mark etc, a little bit too cliche for what I was after - I wanted this to be simple and more about getting the lighting and composition right...

I really like this shot, I like the composition even the extra black. It doesn't really shout dinner time to me but its there if you think about it.

Qiute like the shot and even though it is a healthier option than my entry, I am not sure it is on theme either.
