Comment by GregoryB:
Great earthy tones accentuated by some very good processing. The lighting is just right and the reflection nice and crisp.

Before I read your comment, I was going to say the same thing. The focus looks a little off, but the mirror reflection is causing part of that as well and making me think that the real apples are more out of focus than they really are.

When you compare this image to your pears, the mirror reflection of the pears are a little oof as well (as expected), but it doesn't cause my eye to think that the non-reflected pears are out of focus. I'm wondering if that's caused by the angle of the shot. The shot of the pears is from a slightly higher angle, where the shot of the apples is much lower, so that the reflected apples are much more prominent in the image.

I'm not sure, it's just a thought.

Oh yes, the warmth and colors work so well together. The blue lighting works well with the orange/brown wood.

In this case, I rather think the frame works well because you graduated the colors in it. Had it been a simple flat brown, it would not have worked.

Not voting but... Lighting seems a bit too "flash photoY" for my takes... we looks some details we might have gotten. But... I love the setup. Great for the topic.

Nice use of reflection and symmetry. Not so sure about the brown frame. I think when it comes to that, less is more. :)
