Almost impossible to tell from a picture like this. There's over 3000 varieties of apple in the UK. You need to know all sorts of information = colouring when ripe, patterning on the skin, colour of flesh, shape of apple, shape of the "eye" - the end where the flower is, time of flowering, time of ripening and how long they keep, taste, whether it's a dessert apple or a cooker ...

Those apples don't look ripe to me, and it's quite early for most varieties. Did they lift off easily or did you have to tug them off?
