::: Critique Club :::
Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.
First Impression - the most important one:
The green and red look great .. but what is the placemat there for?
Composition:
interesting composition .. I am not an expert at still life .. but I like how you have set up this .. and cropped ... to a point I want to turn the apple around to create a leading line with the stem .. but not sure if that would work.
Subject:
meets the challenge.... does it well.
Technical (Colour and light):
Great colour and nice lighting .. .the actual reflection of the windows is a little distraction though.
To grow its vote?:
simple pictures with basic elements have taken out this challenge .. I think taht the mat addedd complexity that wasn't needed.
Summary:
Good work . something quite out of the box for you ... keep it up.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.
Cheers
Kari |

| I really like this shot. But the find the focal point somewhat odd. Would've liked some extra DOF to get at least some of the stem in focus. |

| Creative and nicely presented. The lighting could have a small improvement so not relecting on the apple. |

| Nice colors and textures. In a perfect world I would have liked to have the stem in focus as well but I do like your shallow depth of field - it really makes the apple pop out of the photo. Well done. |

| I like this shot. My only comments are the marks in the apple bother me (About half way down) and I would like more focus on the apple. It is too soft for my likeing. |

| This meets the challenge – it’s inanimate and arranged. Nice minimal idea. I think less colour saturation, or maybe adjusting the USM, could alleviate the wood/wax look of the apple. 6 |
