Beautiful lighting, DOF, and exposure. Maybe just a little sharper but I really like the way you composed this. 8

Beautiful color saturation and sharp focus. Composition works well also.

Comment by zeuszen:
This, to me, is an excellent example of what can be done with a (relatively) plain and familiar subject. The effects, although marked, are kept subordinated to the aesthetic demands of the capture.

What's most striking, to me, are the luminously rich tones against and the critically perfect sharpness apparently achieved by impeccable post-processing. Yet, even the composition would not endure a less sensitized eye. > 8

I like the subtle specks in the bowl mirroring the apple skin. Pretty classic still-life.
