Great rustic looking background, lighting is pretty subdued. Composition is great, the peel keeps my eye in the picture. |

Clever idea! A little dark unfortunately. Background on top is distracting since I can't make out what it is, yet it occupies about 25% of the image. You don't need it so you could crop it. I like the surface the apple is on. Good luck in the callenge. Gracious aka Grayce |

This photo really appeals to me. The composition, the subdued lighting, the textures of the background and the apple. I'm giving it 10 - lisae |

Neat idea and picture but my monitor shows a lot of loss of detail in the lower right were the shadows are dence and a black blob across the top. Can't hardly wait for square formats. |

Well arranged composition. The weathered backdrop and roughly peeled apple work well together. I would personally like to see the quarter-tones lightened a bit so the apple might round out a little more. Nice picture. --JPerez |

It's underexposed, and the background is distracting. |

This is a superb idea, but there are a few things wrong with the shot. There are two main problems. Firstly, the lighting is very low. While this might be intentional - judging by the title - it doesn't actually work. Primarily, this is because of the background. It's difficult to determine where the subject ends and the background starts. This could be improved by choosing a much brighter (or darker) neutral backdrop. The various scratches, dents and dark shadows distract from the already hard to see central subject. Try using a plain backdrop for the shot to remove the distractions. Next, try lighting the subject with a bounced or heavily diffused flash. White paper held at angle in front of flash unit works quite well – but be careful of your ceiling colour, if it isn't white, you'll get a colour cast. This is only my opinion and I hope I haven't caused offenceâ€Â¦ Good luckâ€Â¦ Keep shootingâ€Â¦ |

This show quite a bit of creativity on the part of the photographer, but it's too dark and could be a bit sharper. I like the composition, though. |

A little dark... even if the apple is "undressing". Some of the details are lost. |

all in all the photo looks a little dark for me, and i'm wondering why you chose the background that you did. it distracts me a little from the apple. interesting title. -- gr8photos. |

Unattractive background distracts, as does the darker spots on the apple. |

Your choice of background and light was quite unfortunate. I would have tried a bathroom, or a dressing room. |

Cute idea, was the darkness representing the desire for privacy, or something like that? (If not, it's too dark!) Naked apple! Would this be a PG shot or R? 7 Swash |

The concept on this photo is interesting... The composition is also nice, but the weak lighting is causing me to struggle just a bit. - jmsetzler |

Needs a touch more light, I think, but overall a pretty good picture. karmat |
