Great idea. Maybe not very pretty to look at but you managed to get a clear apple image in the eye. And that alone is worth points. 8 from me!

My back yard

Great picture Larus. I really wish you had scored higher on this. I can totally see all the effort you put in to this but what struck me when I voted was that it looks soooo much like the frame was added to the picture in photoshop. This perception is only being strengthened since it looks impossible for this to be anyones backyard as the title implies.

The view down also doesn't match the perfectly square window and it looks like the wall where the window was had to be tilted 30 degrees forward for this to be someone's bacyard.

But... after you explained how it was done I understand it all. I did not understand it in the challenge though.

Having said all this - it's a beautiful picture! :)
