What a perfect set up, Christie! The colors and light are perfect against the black background. It made me crave an apple, so it should work for an apple ad. #5663203

Christie R. Bielss March 19, 2008

Thanks Eivor! To be honest, the apples kept getting rearranged as my daughter kept trying to take a bite out of them! Maybe I should have her around for more of my projects! #5663331

Christie, I would stop and look at this image for sure if it was in a magazine!! Excellent, lighting, clarity, and colours...food mags want the reader to "think/taste/and want to EAT" the food... this is fresh, crisp and colourful my friend.. awesome job! At first sight of this image, I couldn't believe I did not comment- but then I realized I never belonged to BP yet, that is why!!!
