Thanks all for your comments. It finished low in rank but given the comments I've received from some of the absolute best photographers around here (whom I admire) I'm flattered beyond belief. Personally, I love it but I can understand how it might ruffle feathers and score relatively low; there was some great competition though. For anyone interested, I simply cut an approximately 2-3mm slice through the apple's core & placed it on a lightbox. I adjusted it as noted at top.
Thanks again all. I'm always just hoping to improve.

It saddens me not to see this image under the top 10... Fantastic artists eye and concept.

I can not believe that this image finished at this score. You see, some folks have a sex hangup and fail to see the dual beauty and meaning of this image. You did a very nice job here and this is the kind of images that can hang in an art exhibit.

better than the other apple-core-macros i've seen so far. this one has some elegance and form to it that the others characteristically lack.

No wonder the apple has been associated with sex. had you chosen a black background this would have looked totally obscene. lol This capture is lovely and filled with so much sensuality. Bump.

Geesh, get a room! No really, it's interesting but a bit too suggestive and serious for me.

Did you intend for this have a slighty sexual under tone?

I never knew an apple could be semi-pornographic. Very interesting.

This is one of those shots where I say to myself, "Now why didn't I think of that?" Good job! This presents an unusual point of view, is technically excellent, and I wish you the best of luck in the challenge. I'm adding it to my favorites!
