IMAGE: http://fc09.deviantart.com/fs44/i/2009/146/a/b/Bad_Apple__by_yestrdaysforgivn.jpg



Taken today from a new series I'm starting.
I built a frame for the apples to hang from twine on.
Then mounted the frame to the fence.
Used a camera mounted 580EX II bounced off of a reflector coming from the right side of the photo.
Direct sun from the left.

Good? Bad?

The sky seems a bit flat but the apples and fence colors look nice. I think its a great idea and looks good overall.

Nice work. I look forward to seeing more the series.

I love it! I actually like the color of the sky. It really brings out the colors of the apples.

The left side of the fence is darker than the rest. But I kind of like that.

Great job!

Thanks for everyones replies. : )
The sky was originally much darker, but I edited it to have a vintagey vibe to it and this is the outcome of it.
It reminds me personally of summer. : )
Thought it was an appropriate time to take it.

It is.
I know it doesn't look like it.
But I grabbed the guide in photoshop to make sure.
It's just the lighting that makes it look like its not...I think. haha.


And thanks!
I'm glad you like it!
