This is sad, that this image finished so low in the challenge. I had hoped for a top 10! This is a beautiful image. One of my favs!

Cool Image! Is that Seneca Lake in the background? You have to show me how you do that lettering in your images like that, sometime. I've tried some things and it never seems to work out right. I like the embossed look that allows the veiw to read, yet still be able to see the image. So, sometime when you aren't too busy, if you wouldn't mind... :-)

Beautiful image with several types of lighting and great detail along with a powerful DOF... Surely a ribbon winner. Very nice job. <9>

Wow...I am so surprised to see this one finish so low. This was my personal favorite in this challenge. As I look at the scoring I see my 10 was one of only 4. Not very high marks and I am so surprised. It's a wonderful image. A lot better than those top 3 animal pics, in my opinion...!

Nice lighting effect. I like the way you even got a glow on the branch above the apple. <6>

Apples To Oranges

different idea, but the image lack any real interest. There is little to look at, and the detail in the image is not sharp, giving the viewer something to search for. I like the idea, but a sharper image, with a background other than white might have been a little better. <5>

Wonderful warm colors, and a pretty neat idea for the challenge. Great details in this image make it stand out as a leader in this challenge. <8>
