the play of colors is not really pleasing to the eye, and the plad behind the apple says "set-up shot".

I think a different background would have shown the apple off better

Popular idea that has a clear message. This shot looks pretty "noisy" evenly through out the image. The positioning of the two heads in the dead center of the photo detracts from the life of the shot a little. Maybe using a close up shot with shallow depth of field, and composing the position of the right-hand side girl's eye by using the rule of thirds would give some extra punch to the picture.

Very low contrast for a b/w or duotone treatment. Makes it look dull and flat...

Beautiful expressions you've captured here. I suggest that you crop tightly, zooming into the faces to give more impact to an already excellent capture.

I like the b&w and the grain, but the shot looks to staged for me. Good luck

nice thought, but the execution is not that great. the quality of the shot is poor and the colors are just dreary.

A nice little candid moment. Not enough contrast, and lighting is a bit dark.

maybe a little higher angle would provide a more interesting appeal to the eye, glad you did disclose what this was, the pattern is the strength

The challenge was very specific about what was considered wildlife. This wasn't one of the choices.
