Hi
I don't do much Macro stuff, but had fun with this one- We had a major ice storm a few weeks ago- power outages, downed trees, etc. A terrible but beautiful event.
Enjoy!
Comments most welcome.

P.S. Will also post this (altered) in the Out-of the-box forum- not sure which I prefer
Cindy, You are so creative-can't wait to see your post in OOTB! I like this interesting composition-love the icicles and the apples together-has nice dimension- and I like the color palette
Oh my gosh, you were in that mess of an ice storm, weren't you? My heart goes out to you. We went through a bad one a few years back and I still cringe when I hear the word "ice."
As for the photo...excellent! I love how 3D it looks and really like how crystal clear you got the ice - excellent exposure! I would try to tone down the hot spots on the right sides of the fruits if you are so inclined. I think that would add even more to this beautiful image.
Excellent Cindy,
The composition, image and exposure is superb...I like the ice on the apples, they have a natural frosty glaze to them. I like the depth of field, it gives the composition a 3-d effect...well done...:cool:
Cindy, I pretty much agree with everything above. I love the composition and detail of the subject apples and icicles. And the depth of field does almost lift the subject right off the page. The only thing that bothers me, a little but it does bother me, is the background. I know it sort of repeats the main subject but it just seems a tad bit too busy for my taste. But that may just be me.
Frosty Apples
