I thought I'd actually have a look at some of your photos after all that...

I like this a lot, certainly it's one of the better entries in the challenge. While it might not have told a story to the same extent (and thus might not have done as well), I think this may have been better aesthetically without the glass. With or without its a really great shot.

dont like the background

COOL! I'm not really sure what to say... An expression of human physical strength with a humourous twist that's completely in keeping with the challenge. This is an absolutely marvellous shot...

I love the definition of the arm and the background colour and texture.

This is incredible. It is so creative and powerful: the arm, the rough stone in background, apple and glass come together to form a wonderful composition. It was a very good idea to have him compress the apple as it defines the musculature of arm in juxtaposition to the wall...the tonal quality is excellent..9

I kind of like this one. The colors a good but I think the light is the weakest part. His arm has a bit of a green tint to it. The over all idea is good.

OH! So that's how apple juice is made. Hmmm...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Awesome detail, composition, lighting on the apple. I usually don't like cut off arm and hand shots, but you have framed the arm right here so it doesn't look unnatural. One of my top ten. Using a glass without lines in the glass might have made the dripping juice clearer.

A powerful image.

This might have been better against a white or cream colored wall. It is really an interesting picture. You can almost feel how strong this guy's muscles are.

good lord, i can feel the anger! i love this shot
  Photographer found comment helpful.

My all time favorite. Great shot. The tension in the arm and the color in the back are terrific, but the concept is what kills. Good luck!

Creative. Powerful picture, and great arm. Nice contrast against the texture and color of the background.

Very different and striking. possible noise issues and glare on top of the apple, but the rest is very striking. 8
