Great textures and colors in this one, Dave. I like the contrast between the leaves, the shiny apples, and the black background. The light is really nice, too. It's bright, but not too harsh. Feels almost like winter light - or at least what I think of as winter light

I feel like there may be a bit too much going on in this image. I'm thinking a tighter, more controlled composition might strengthen it. If this tree is in your yard, it's probably worth trying to take a new photo of it every day for a while. That can be a very useful exercise. Every time you go back to take another picture you'll refine what you did before, distilling what drew you in the first time.
