compositionally, you have a very strong picture here. It is "anchored" in the front, bottom third, and this gives the eyes some where to rest when initially viewing the picture. The stems sticking up, then lead the eyes up into the frame.

Technically, the focus is razor sharp on the water and that is good because if they were the least bit off, it would really be noticeable. The shallow dof is good to emphasize the clarity of the front fruit. The exposure and the colors are nice as well.

Overall, you have an excellent shot. While I can't really offer you any advice on how to improve it, I do hope that telling what works in it helps in some way. Please feel free to contact me if i need to further clarify or explain anything.

Why the 1 and the 3's. Honestly a superb shot, even if it was close to the shallow DOF challenge, it met the challenge, and you captured the shot again very well. Well done and nice finish.

something distracting about the spots of water, less would have been best, omo.

Hmmm, this is very similar to style of one of the current ribbon winners on the front page...nonetheless this composition is a wonderful piece of technical work and imagery. Lighting is wonderful and the color tones are nice warm reds and yellows. Love the water beads on the apple - focus & clarity is execellent and sharp so we can bite into (sorry for the pun, just had too:-) ) all the lovely details of the photo. And as an added visual uniqueness this apple has not one, but two stems! That adds to the visual interest of this composition. Nicely done this scores in the exceptional category!

nice use of macro here - the drops of water add just the right amount of highlights to this image.

That's interesting. I rather like it. Even if it's contrived, it looks believable. I wonder what it would look like if the overall tones weren't quite so yellow. Hmmm - just thinking out loud. 7
