Challenge: Apple (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Concord 3045
Location: my kitchen in erskine, scotland
Date: May 12, 2005
Galleries: Humorous, Food and Drink
Date Uploaded: May 15, 2005

 I took a Granny Smith apple and carved the Pi sign into it. I then sat it on a piece of light green card as a back ground.
Using Paint sho pro, I only changed the colour balance on the picture to make the green more intense.
Not too sure if what I've done is right, but it's my first challenge and it was fun!

there you go! thats good for your first challenge, wish I were doing the same with my first challenge (lighting) It is doing a lot worse... AND I blame it all on paint shop pro :) Like I said on the thread you've posted, you've done very well, great idea and a good photo in the end..

Very nice idea, but I think it's much too dark.

I love the idea! I would suggest a whiter background and a more pure green apple.

Very cute. I would have liked to have seen a little more contrast; perhaps a brighter light on the apple?

The image didn't have enough light to separate it well from the background.

Shows some imaginaion. The green background combined with the green frame makes it look a bit bland.

Lighting needs work, not sure what. Great idea though

great idea, shame it's not a bit brighter.

Very artful. Maybe a little lighter would work better. I love the shades of green theme.

Great idea! A bit more light may have made it even better.

wish this wasn't so dark...it's so creative and simplistic 6

Fine idea, love the background green. The overall shot is dark and it doesn't have any pop to make it stand out.

clever and cool background coloring.

good idea and nice job carving it but your lighting has totally killed you.
