| Beautiful lush colors. I like your choice of the black base and white background. The texture on the orange and apple are a little lost with the DOF that seems to favor the orange in the background. Great idea, wonderfully executed. You composed the photo very well with excellent use of the negative space on the lower right. |

| i like this idea, but i think its too busy. i would prefer just the apple and orange halves that you have placed together. |

| I really like the idea of apples and oranges. I especially like that you didn't just photo apples and oranges, but mashed them together with a nail. Great shot! |

| First of all, i don't get your title. If the b&w has to do with the tray and background, okay, I guess I get it. Second, i don't think apples and oranges represent opposites so much as they represent things that are different (and often not comparable). So I don't think you met the challenge. That said, putting the apple skin over the orange is quite clever. |

| I'm not picking up the relationship between the b/w and the apples oranges. I'm also not seeing the role played by the nail. I think I'd try to pick a single theme here so the image could make a stronger statement. |

| Great idea! Love how you put the orange and apple together on the nail and arranged the other halves. Colors are great and it is nice and sharp. 9 |

| Ah - a "double" entry - very clever. Your colors are right on as is the exposure. But I do have a problem with your composition. The top of the appleorange is very crowded at the top, should be a bit more space above. And, I think it would be better if the entire orange half on the right were included in the frame. Overall - a very ORIGINAL idea very well executed. |

| Nice picture. I'm having trouble coming up with any constructive criticism for you. Maybe taking the brightness of the white background down a notch would keep it from stealing some attention from the fruit? |

| Is this the same person who impaled a tennis ball in "Rusted"? I like the idea and image. |

| First off, it was a good idea using the black as the base. I like how it dampens the reflections a bit so more focus is on the actual fruit. I like how you put the pieces of the apple and orange together. The leftover orange is too far away from the rest. It's almost like an afterthought. The other apple is too close in line with the nailed together fruit. (Is this making any sense?? LOL) Maybe sitting the half apple/half orange together, where one is just barely leaning against the other would have brought it all together in the center of the composition. On the other hand, there is just enough white background to balance. Overall, I think it's a strong shot. |
