 Wow.  That's really close.  My first reaction to the shot was 'ew'.  It looks like we are looking up a nose and there are seeds jammed into the nose. lol  So, that's my first impression.
 Focus looks really good and texture in this shot is amazing.  I like the wet texture on the white part of the apple and the seeds are a dark smooth.  That makes for a nice contrast in textures.
 Lighting seems a bit dark in the center, with some bright reflections on the white of the apple.
 I wonder how this would look at a different angle.  Maybe not so centered in the photo.  I think one comment said to off center it a bit, my suggestion would be to try to just make it so we are looking at it from a more of a side angle rather than straight on.  The seeds could still be in the center of the photo, but we would not be looking dead on that way.
 Overall, you have a nice pic of a good looking apple.

		| | great idea, nice macro, but the lighting really detracts...it's just a bit too strong. |

		| | I like the perspective but I think a different crop might help, step back and offcenter maybe. |
