Default Apples: LOMO effect in photoshop (first attempt)

I cropped this image, then followed the tutorial I found on this site to try to recreate this image with a "LOMO effect". Let me know what you think. I think maybe more saturation, but the saturation was low to begin with since it was shot in the early afternoon on a very bright day.
Thanks for the input!

I Iike what you have started here... I think you just need to push it a little further to give it that true lomo feel instead of a slightly boosted saturation and vignette... Let's see what else you've got!

This is a nice shot and nice editing, but this isn't harsh enough to really be lomo. You can Google lomo Photoshop tutorials - that will help!

Thanks for the critique everyone! I feel the same way about it not looking harsh enough for Lomography. I will check out that google search and see if I can learn how to give it that true LOMO feel.

Even if it's not 'Lomo" enough, I really like it. Wonderful composition!
