Very cool. Love the slight "wind" blurr. Great against the black background. Nice intense color and contrast.

Pity yourself...

I used no such filter! I used a low shutter speed and zoomed out while the shutter was open to create this.

this looks like about a 4:5 ratio.. I think a 2:3 or even just 3:4 would have worked better

Colours are so vibrant, and in such contrast. Ths slight out of movement makes it look like an oil painting - love it.

Beautiful image. A very nice choice of apple. The colors are great. I like the soft focus or gaussian blur here. Works very well for this photo IMO. Nice job.

I love the blurring on the apple, but the apple's edge looks a little unnatural.

I like it but too bad you can feel this heavy ps grip :( My guess is that You overexposed the image and tried to heal it. Don't know if I am right but- is this shadow natural ? Because it doesn't consume the apple in a shadowy way but you can see straight lines. As if a polygon. I am sorry if I am wrong but that's my impression.

Except for a little too much color - and a bit of blurring - neat picture. 7

I love the rich colors of the apple in your photo and the sense of very sharp areas combined with soft edges. The greenness of the stem looks a little oddly colored to me, but all in all a stunning photo! Cutey!!

Nice use of blur to create a dramatic effect and draw the viewer's attention to those great colours.
