great black and white. the highlights are blown out and i kinda like it that way, makes a nice visual. i dont think it would have the same appeal if it was toned down. well done. (6) ~mcmurma

Simple image. B&W really works for this image. Nice concept and shadows and shades really bring this out.

Unique - different - not something I thought of! Perhaps I don't quite understand the point (no pun intended) - but, I very much like this. The use of light and shadow is excellent in such that is displays so many tones (ref to A Adams). It has a drastic value to it (extra exposure), yet is also a little subtle. Be interested to know if this was accomplished w/in the camera, or was a little tweaking necessary. Great work and effort 8

I love the fuzzy shadows and how the light rings the apple. The overexposure and grainy feel work well.

How funny, one of my attempts at the challenge was to stick a pencil in an orange. :-) I wish the top of the apple didn't disappear, but maybe you did that intentionally. Still, a good shot. 6

I like the use of the light in this photo to produce the sharp contrasts with the shadows... good work! = 8 - jmsetzler
