a bit more DOF would be good.

The flash seems a bit harsh on this.

The object itself is delicate, but the photo doesn't really enhance the delicateness (oh, that's really a word). It looks a little thicker and sturdier, if you know what ah mean.

I like the lighting and color tones. Subject matter is "ok".

Very interesting shot. There's a lot going on here. I'd like it if the DOf was a bit larger. Not all in sharp focus but just a tad more. The pp is great and even the border is a very nice tough. Well done.

the quality and capture of this photo are fine, but it's not much of an inspiring idea for twisted

You have definitely captured an interesting subject here, but I think that the depth of field detracts from the overall image. While some have successfully escaped the thought in my mind, I still believe that a challenge titled Nine with nine individual subjects in the image should keep those subjects in crisp focus throughout. Of course that is not a hard, fast rule, rather a thought inside my mind's eye. I think that crisp focus would have helped your image more. As I move my eye through the frame and to the right, it becomes more difficult to look at due to the loss of focus. Sure, the blurring does force my eye to stay on a certain portion of the image, but I'd rather it be free to wander within the constraints of the frame. Interesting image, but I think more focal clarity would have served well to grow your score. From me, a score of 6.
