Cut the top of the apple off, attached a string to it, and yanked it away midway during the exposure.


I don't care about the score, this is one of my better studio shots.

hmm... this is a very clever idea, and well executed! I will admit however that my first impression was not so good, until I read the details. The top almost looks like it wasn't exposed properly, instead of looking like a neat time-exposure trick. Perhaps the viewer would "get it" if there was a little motion streak trailing after the apple top. Just a thought. :) I really like the nice clean light and the rich colors though, and it certainly is a neat idea!

Very nice. It is a shame that no one got it during the contest.

I would have rather seen a partially peeled apple. This has no appeal (no pun intended)

That is a very interesting idea. Did you put a veil in front of the camera for the fading top part?

creative idea, but no a good one. Sorry...

i can imagine this is getting some.....interesting comments...i like the idea but the editing is just too painfully obvious, if you could pull this off with some more convincing pp i think you would knock it out of the park /4

This is certainly unique. At least, you didn't cut the top off of the apple.

Interesting concept but really doesn't cut the mustard. I think maybe should have gone ahead and cut the top off and set it next to or against, the red looks nice but the fad looks horrid.

I would be interested to know how you achieved this in basic editing?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

the bottom of your apple is nice and sharp. mystified how you managed to get the top invisible though

interesting idea

are you sure this is legal in basic? I'd get this validated if I were you...will give benefit of the doubt with my score...
