Good idea and nice shot. I think Neat Image processing could get rid of the noise.

Cute subject ... you could do more with your lighting, though, and the image could be more saturated, with better contrast.

Creative Idea! The background is too close. Seems grainy.

where you on a hurry?

Sorry, I like the picture, but, I just don't see the conflict connection.

Too close to your backdrop. Over exposed.

A lot of noise, bad use of flash, poor focus. I am not sure about the conflict theme ... Sorry

i think i like this idea but the photo is technically bad and feels very rushed

hehe, cute idea. Try moving your lighting off-axis for better effect.

eliminate flash or reduce via diffusion.

Interesting and creative idea, and it fits the challenge nicely. However, your technicals need some work. The shot it out of focus and very grainy. The lighting is very flat--looks like it was from directly in front, which along with the dead-center composition, is simply not very creative.

Your toughts definately show potential--you just need to work on the basics. Keep shooting!

A tad out of focus and a harsh reflection center apple.

Creative idea for the challenge. Your light is really strong and the colors are a bit washed out. Neat idea.

This has the potential of a great shot. Original and funny and a nice depiction of the challenge. The problems I have with this shot are these:
- the contrast could be boosted up, easy thing to do in post processing.
- the light source is directly in front of the apple which to me is a bit distractng, a softer light at another angle could fix this.
Score: 5
Good job nonetheless! Good luck!

The reflection on the apple is a bit distracting.

The lighting and contrast could be better.
