This is clever, visually striking and simple. Exactly enough stop motion on the apple to achieve the effect you were after while maintaining the falling illusion. Nice big apple as well; even in fruit, size matters. 8.

Sorry, but is has a lot of noise, not very clear, not enough light ... My opinion.

A very good effect of motion trail with against a nice rich black background. Bumping up.

I don't know if you intended all the noise, but it detracts from an otherwise nice idea. 5

Very phallic, was that your intent? lol The image is neat but flat.

One would say it is too noisy. So it is. But a wonderful great shot all the same, anf if you hang it as a print on your wall, nobody will mind noises!

Wow, cool motion you have captured here! The background seems a bit off color (not black), but that may have been what you were aiming for (innovation). I'm wondering what this would have looked like with some different editting steps, maybe darker, less saturated, maybe a red doutone. Just some ideas.

kinda off topic but was the background supposed to be black or dark grey?beacuse it looks dark grey to me... maybe your monitor might be slightly off-calibrated... or maybe its supposed to be dark grey afterall.
