Comment by Matthew:
good, simple symbolism. nice lighting and the cropped focus point works for me. Maybe could have lined the DoF on the edge of the bite with the stalk?

Probably a 5 from me, Shannon, if I were voting on it. Because of the orange cast, I would have thought that I was looking at the sun through a thick haze if it weren't for the title telling me otherwise. Another nit-pick: I think a single black border would work better.

Comment by SDW:
I would of given it a 4 or 5. It meets the challenge but lacks detail. The photograph is flat and seems to be a bit blurred. I believe you were going for a spooky kind of look and you were on track with the composition. But I believe the color should of been more of a haze/bluish look for that kind of mood. And the picture needs to be sharper on the subjects.
Not a bad picture but not enough detail to grab attention.I hope you don't take offense to what I have said but I want to be honest.

Nice take on challenge. I think the crop is a little too close. I would have liked to see more of the apple and bite. Although the background is nice, it seems to cast a bluish light on the back of the apple.

I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

Nice close up shot that works. Even the border works. Bumping.
