Such shiney good looking apples. The concept isn't that new but you pull it off in style.

... Except for the bruised one at the front, and the one with stuff on it behind the red one.
I'm touched to know you think I pulled it off in style. There aren't many original concepts left for photography. If it can be done, it probably has been done. But for me, doing justice to a concept is just as important as a new concept.

They're all individual apples... none more than the red one! They're like humans!
You're welcome, and yes, you did pull it of in style very well. If somethings gotta be done, it's gotta be done properly...

Aww, thank you so much!
Now that you mention the apple making the >_< face, I have it in my head now too, and I'm laughing!

LOVE IT! It's not necessarily unique, I'll admit, but I love the way you didn't use all perfect green apples. It makes them more human-like and different from the other pictures like this

Thank you! I'm glad you like that fact.
In all my work, there's never perfection, because I find the most beauty in imperfections. And, that's what I like about this. It's reflective of how none of us are perfect... But even in this imperfect world, I still feel like me and my imperfections are just too different for people to accept.
I just won't eat the bruised apple at the front.
I'm also quite flattered that despite this not being a totally original concept, you like it, and see the link I was trying to make between some fruit, and society. It makes me feel like, while I'm not groundbreaking, I am doing justice to the idea.
*warm fuzzy feeling*

Ah, well, you know I think that the second lesson here is how much too people can actually connect, despite being ocean*thinks*s away. It's funny to me to think of how internet and signals of electricity can connect two people...actually, one of my most significant relationships started on a Warrior Cats rpg website. I can tell if he's upset if he just says something like, "How have you been today, Moonie?" by the way he sounds in my head...it's quite peculiar.

I know, right!
I used this photo in my photo journal last night because that poor red apple is like me... So very different, and isolated despite being surrounded by others.
Strange how we can relate to a photo of fruit. You might like the lonely macaroon I got a photo of, but it's on fb, not here. Go to the photograhic hiatus album.

But. Yeah. Awesome photo!

Hahaha. That's probably not a good thing.
Step away from the games consol!
But thank you!
