I added a cast shadow for the stem and more shadow in the well of the apple. I darkened the shadow on the right side and added in a reflective highlight and also tried to lighten the shadow close to the viewer. Thank you Doug! It does look more 3D.
Gorgeous, Mary! Those changes made a big difference. You could consider taking your kneaded eraser and lightly dab along the edge of your cast shadow so that it ends a little less abruptly. But seriously gorgeous apple. Wonderful.
