What an interesting dog!! Two different eye colors and a goofy looking nose. It sure does look devoted and loyal. I like the off center cropping. The photo is really clear.

A little fuzzy for an animal photo. Try Macro.

This is a real nice idea and I really like the ongoing conversation here.
But I think the background is not the right one for this shot.
I can't put my finger exactly on what it is, but something here is... dunno... too kitchen fluorescent light. A real art that was taken at the wrong place.
I would love to see this one with a bit warmer lighting and background.
If you ever get a chance...

But still this one a great entry in the challenge, and highly underrated.

Wonderful shot.
I love that grungy feel and those yellowish tones work just great!

are the eyes naturally two different colors? Focus feels a bit off - tight crop?

I really like the concept you put here! The apple of course invokes thought about the apple from the tree of knowledge as well as the female breast invokes the idea of Eve. The apple also makes me think of the absent Adam - as that we have heard the phrase "Adam's apple". While the concept is brilliantly done I think that there is room for improvement on the overall photo. I think if you had a starker contrast background - say a bright white instead of the blueish white tone - that the objects would really reach out and grab the viewer by the lapels and say "Notice me!". The other thing that might also help is that the apple be turned on it's side such that the "tip" seems to be going "head to head" against the tip of the woman's breast. The apple laying on it's side would be a different view but also it would visually show us and make us think automatically about "The Fall of Adam and Eve".

I like the composition on this photo. You have an arrangment of interesting objects to capture the eye's attention. The curve of the lines on the roof as the flow diagonally across invokes fluid motion - one that the eye follows and appreciates. Next to it the viewer can take in the sights of the blue sky and clouds. I know that this may not have been possible or you may not have had the time. But I wonder if you could have waited a little while such that the clouds were arranged all in the lower left hand corner. In that way it would look like the white clouds were a 'front' moving in on the 'weather front' of the "white curve' roof. A visual of a natural weather front going up against a man-made 'weather' front. Again it may not have been possible due to mother nature not being the best model to work with:-) and time constrants.
