Inspection for Perfection

It would have been a great shot had you posed the apple picker on a higher ladder. That way, you could have lit the subject with a spot light and his face would have been less shaded. I can't see his eyes clearly enough. Perhaps, having him pose so that his head was completely out of the way of the branches would have worked better. And, that's not a Gucci Hoodie. The apple pickers here wear Gucci. Try to make it less candid and more staged next time. BTW....how did you get that apple bush (or is it a tree?) into the studio? And.....the apple just above his head to the right of his head, seems to have a hole in it. I think that there must be a worm in it.

Oh wait, that was a fly on my monitor. It's ok. Changed my vote from a 1 to a 9! Nice image!

great concept, but bet you're taking a beating for the lack of "traditional flora definition" right?

interesting concept and really, obviously thought out, but somehow.......not hitting the mark. You're taking a beating on this one, aren't you??? Don't worry, not scoring, just commenting.

Wow, VERY nice! Love the lighting on the edge. Likely a contender for a ribbon and expect to see it in the top 10.

Alone at the beach!

oh to be able to hit that beach right now! *smile* Love the waves in the background. Are you taking a pounding for the "tilt" of this shot? I've had SO many where even though I was TRYING for that tilt, have gotten POUNDED for not being "level" LOL

Like the concept....shows up just a tad dark on my screen, but then, isn't that always the problem? Different calibrations on different monitors. LOL

wow, nice idea, but I'll bet you're taking a total pounding in here for the noise and overprocessing as well as overexposure, right? I'm not scoring in this challenge, just commenting (my personal rule not to score in a challenge I'm entered into).
