Thanks for all your godd comments. I placed the apple on a white peace of paper and turned all the lights off. Then I just used an ordinary flashlite to light up the apple. Maby I'll hook up a 'How'd They Do That?' if you want.

nice and classic - would a black and white shot make it any more dramatic?... 8-photosbyayme

Shades of John Setzler. Where is the nekkid lady? 10 JEM

I think this would have been a really great shot if there wasn't so much shadow on the middle of the apple. Maybe a side light could have helped fix that, unless you were trying for the shadow, in that case, I'll just say that it doesn't work for me. The idea is great, and I like the angle and framing/cropping you have chosen. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~

Greetings for Hickory, NC? Superb work making something inherantly ugly into something that's enjoyable to look at.

One of my fav's of the week. Nice shot.
10/12/2002 12:58:00 AM
Fantastic lighting makes tihs photo very dramatic. Fantastic colors as well. Great framing. Excellent use of the black space on the top of the subject. 10/10
10/10/2002 07:37:00 PM
i like how the light is on the top of the apple (nice colours) but it looks like the apple's been there for a while, and all the shadows are distracting.
10/10/2002 05:02:00 PM
Off center on purpose? - bamaster (8)
10/10/2002 01:54:00 PM
Your composition and lighting is good but I would like to see a lot of the black at the top cropped off.
10/10/2002 12:39:00 PM
Its nice, but I think some lighting on the front to get rid of the shadow on the apple would improve it. The shadow takes away a lot of detail. - Konador

Very nice shot - this week's most visually appealing apple core!
10/08/2002 08:33:00 PM
This is pure trash! I never thought I'd get to use that statement as a compliment, but that's how I intend it this time :) I like this a lot -- one of my favorites so far. The lighting is quite unique and interesting.
10/08/2002 06:03:00 PM
interesting use of light..i think i want to see the core a bit more. 8--shutterfly
10/08/2002 04:51:00 PM
excellent job with the lighting :) - 9 - setzler
10/08/2002 04:28:00 PM
interesting lighting...
10/08/2002 04:26:00 PM
I've never seen an apple in this light before (pun intended). If it wasn't for the title I wouldn't have known what this was. Nice abstract - well executed. High Score

Good use of a spot light, but overall the picture is a bit too dark for my likes.

i like it simple.

I love the lighting on this one. 10
10/07/2002 04:26:00 PM
nice use of light and negative space

You can eat a whole apple you know?
10/07/2002 01:45:00 PM
I went for something similar, in the sense of making something nice about trash. I hope you do good, it's a nice picture. 2 suggestions: I would've focus the top part of the apple. and it's a bit too contrasted.
10/07/2002 01:38:00 PM
I like the negative space, and teh lighting. Very good picture, I think. karmat
10/07/2002 01:37:00 PM
I love the rich color, composition, and how you can see just a hint if light shining down through the top of the apple.
10/07/2002 12:37:00 PM
Fabulous lighting and excellent clarity. I llike the use of the black space on the top. Great Job. 9 - sojourner
10/07/2002 11:31:00 AM
I don't care for the dark shadow on the inside of the core.
10/07/2002 11:29:00 AM
bit too dark for my liking but it defintely looks good..
10/07/2002 11:04:00 AM

The first shot this week that I said, "WOW". I love it, The lighting is beautiful and the colors are outstanding. I love the use of negative space as well. The only thing I can find that is not perfect is the slight glare on the front of the apple top. Close enough...10 from me. DPz
