Not voting just commenting. Nice lighting, composition is ok. Odd crop which adds a lot of dead whitespace to the top of the photo without reason. Well focused. Sort of soulless in a stock photo sort of way.

Seems like too much empty space to me, and I would have prefered the apple to look more round. I like the colors and the focus - definitely can see a lot of great detail!

Very stock photo-ish. Clean, simple...in this case maybe TOO simple.

I dont know why, but i would love this picture if it had a thick black border. It is not very interesting now, but it would be great with a large dark frame.
