Greetings from the Critique Club :)
Hi Doug :)
I hate that I got this photo this week because I like it... It looks like I was your only 10 of the week though :( I don't quite understand that at all. I think this was an excellent idea. I think you simply got 'nitpicked' to death. Where there is an opportunity, it seems like the voter will take it... the score is decent though...
Great shot :)

Very creative. Wish the glare wasnt there on the red slice of the apple. Good job. |

Very interesting concept. The choice of photos here was a winner for me this time of year. Nice job with this pic - Inspzil |

Interesting idea and a technically strong study. The only thing that doesn't work for me is the amount of shine at the base of the apple. It has an odd effect that draws my eye away from the holly on the top. The photo doesn't grab me, but is objectively very good. |

very festive and neat idea. |

Very nice composition. Focus is great. Good luck. |

Very original idea! Question, why didn't you continue the striping the whole way around the apple? (maybe because it wouldn't hold together like that?) Good focus, color, etc. How about an 8? Swash |

I am guessing, but I think this took a lot of work. And you did a fine job. Nice framing and very festive looking. |

Here´s a great job. Good colours, focus, lighting and background. The border is a little thick for my taste. I had probably mad it dark gray and 4-5 pixels. But this is a matter of taste. Overall a nice photo that could be a nice poster. (7)
Sorry I have to come in here again. I´m looking at it for the 10th time and now I have made up my mind. I have to change my score from (7) to (8). I really can´t say why it´s not higher - it has something to do with the cropping (framing). Sorry for not being able to be more precise. (final-8) |

This is cute. I would like to see a bit more room on the right side so it was equal to the left. A little more detail on the berries would also be good they seem a bit blurred. = 7 |

This is very nitpicky, but I'd like to see either burgandy (the peels) or red (the berries). A very clever idea, though. 7 |

Cleverly done :o) Perhaps a second light on the righthand side would help balance the image, and a slight adjustment on the crop so that the rightmost holly leaf isnt as close to the border might help too. |

HAHAHA, very original. I like the idea that you have here. Nice colors. |

This is a really great idea. This is a christmas card for sure. I love it. The angle and framing/cropping is great. I like the added space at the top, and the border really sets this off. colors are great, as is the focus and clarity. I am not sure if I might like to see the bottom of the apple in focus or not. I think it's ok as is, but maybe I'd like to see it with the bottom in focus for comparrison. what a wonderful, pleasing to look at shot. Good luck in the challenge. |

it is a very creative idea thats for sure... maybe too much so? since you can see what was done it seems a bit contrived... now if there was a way to make it look real, you would really have a shot! |

great idea and i like the border. |

Unfortunatelly, accept for background lighting I don't find anything very interesting in this image. Sorry. However it is just one opinion, good luck. |

Oh neat! Are the holly berries real? The almost look fake... I love the red apple peels on the green apple, but I think you should have gone all the way around the apple, it doesn't flow right on the top right side of the apple. the left red peelcould have been closer to the apple. Overall great concept, but could be improved slightly. |

Neat shot....neat apple....(s). I like the composition very much. The light could of been better and I think that would of helped the focus. |

THIS IS WAY COOL, IF I COULD VOTE I WOULD HAVE GIVEN IT A NINE ONLY BECAUSE YOU DID NOT DO THE WHOLE APPLE. ONCE AGAIN THIS IS WAY COOL. |

Awesome idea ! I love what you did with this. Shiiizzzam |

Good Idea, but I find the small gap between apple slices to be distracting. I imagine it was very difficult to put together, though. Good effort!
