| cool shot! next time, i recommend dipping the slices on lemon juice to lessen the browning of apples. either that or angle it in a way that it's totally horizontal. cheers! |

| Very creative shot. During voting I was worried the brown on the cut parts of the apple would hurt this. I'm very glad to see it didn't. great job. congratulations. |

If you had rubbed olive oil on the apple slices they would not have turned brown as quickley, a thin layer of mayonaise would do the same thing.
Still a great picture and one of my favs! The above tip is something I learned on the Food Network :D |

| well deserved 3rd. I gave you a 9 at vote. The only thing that i thought was a little of a "10" was the browning of the flesh, but i am ausuming that this shot may have been the last of many that you had taken for this shoot. For next time I always used a little cooking oil on the cuts to keep them "fresh" or spraying them with water as you go. But if the browness was what you where trying to achieve i'll give you a post challenge 10!! |

| Really neat idea and pretty good execution. The color is perfect and I like how you've let the apple turn a little brown (maybe it just happened cause you took too long though :) ). What I don't like though is the visible halo I can see around most of the outer edges of the apple (maybe 5 or 8 pixels out). It seems that the background was maybe blurred in post? Either way... I give a 9 |

| wish the dark, rough bit on the lowest right piece of apple wasn't there. I find myself focusing on it and wanting to flick it off, when I'd rather be visually exploring the textures & colors in other areas of the photo. |

07/27/2006 07:41:15 PM |
| You know... this is really cool to look at. Much better than just fruit on a colored background. The only drawback (and it's being really picky) is the fruit browning on you. If it was whiter it would really contrast alot better, but kinda hard to offset physics huh? :) I'll still give it an 8. |

| This is my fav of the fruit photos. Great texture and variable tones and hues--even in the background! Wow, what a concept. I think that was what lacked in the other fruit photos--they were just too monochromatic (if that can be?). |

|

| Very creative idea and great execution. If you wanted to create something along these line again without the browning, I've heard that lemon juice helps preserve apples a little longer. Great photo! |

A tip for next time would be to rub the apple slices in lemon juice. It stops them going brown so quickly (old chef's trick, not that I'm an old chef of course!) |
