I would have preferred the focus on the skin of the apple, as the colour and light looks really good. But overall a nice effect Dave.

Very nice mate I like the focus as it is but we all think different, I like the way it sort of leads you into the core or is just me lol...

When depth of focus is so shallow - I guess where you place it is very much in the eye of the beholder.
I'm not sure focus on the end of the stalk fits the title but I think it's made for the best shot.
Love the way the green works against the red.

It's very subjective I guess! I really can see the merits of both focusing on the stalk and on the apple. I think I personally would prefer the apple myself, but I personally think the stalk suits the title better because it leads you in to the core 
In any case, well done!

The in focus stalk works well although it might of been worth getting the apple a tad more in focus, only a tad mind you. Personal taste i guess. Other than that its good Dave

That is the problem i had with using my sigma lens with the mac lenses Dave, creates such a shallow DOF, i tend to use the smaller lens now when using mac lenses
