I like the shadowy sheen you captured on the tops of the apples. Very effective.

Very cool feel to this shot. Maybe could be just a little brighter (not too much!), but overall I really like it.

Let me just say that this one of the best interpretations of this challenge. It has a quality that I can't explain but is eirie and spellbinding at the same time. The only things that keeps this from a ten are two reflection spots that could be cloned out under different editing rules. Nice depth comp, color and use of light.

Comment by RKT:
This is just so juicy...no pun intended, or maybe it was. The light is so ethereal and the shine on the apples is divine. I would have loved to have seen this with more black above the sea of apples, a more squarish, "normal" canvas size with the apples in the bottom 1/3 or so...I just find this sort of long, squat cropping somewhat disconcerting and un-natural. I think maybe more black "breathing room" above would have made the apples "pop" even more than they do now...they are absolutely gorgeous.
