I decided to actually take to task this week and shoot a staged photo of an apple (or at least attempt to). Naturally, I could have placed an apple in one of my child's hands and snapped off a gorgeous shot of an 'apple', but I always do that.

I wanted to actually challenge myself this week . . . I've been playing around with apples all week and this is what I came up with.

I'm not sure which pose I like better . . . but I do love my textures (thanks Kim).

Oh, and I totally couldn't not post a photo of my kids with apples . . . I lied!
