Glowing apple
This photo looks good (I think) with the full reflection showing on the table top.
However, when I uploaded it to Flickr it didn't show properly in the thumbnail so I cut the bottom off a little so the apple itself would show in the thumbnails.
My reason for doing this was whenever a picture is posted to Flickr, it appears as a thumbnail, be it in a group pool or in the contact list.
This is how the thumbnail appears on my flickr photostream:
Cropping the extra table and reflection makes it look better on the thumbnails than without the crop.
