Nice. Very well centered; there's not much worse than a composition that obviously was intended to be centered, but is off by a a hair. I like the viewpoint.

Organic butterfly?

Cool image. It makes you think for a second and question what you're looking at. (But, regular butterflies, the insect kind, are organic too, right?)

Early Morning Fuel

This is tremendously stupendously great. The composition is fantastic. Gorgeous black and white processing job, please describe how you did the B&W conversion! (My mono images always feel so dead.) Look, I just noticed there is steam coming from the cup. That's a great detail.

I could question what the "everyday object" is here, but from the title it seems to be the fuel, the brewed coffee being poured into the cup. If this image were any less wonderful, I would knock off a point or two because I don't think a liquid is an 'object'. But in this case, I will make an exception, because everything else is absolutely perfect. 10!

Ordinary Toilet

Interesting subject. The lighting and exposure are good. Technically a good photograph. The composition feels very dull though. Maybe another camera angle (lower, or to the side, or both) would add some more interest.

Little mouse in the house
by Lesya

Comment:
Ha! One of my ideas was mice for this challenge. I even spent an hour or so setting up and photographing my collection of Microsoft Intellimouses, but eventually went with something else.

This is a great image. The silver and black theme makes it feel very professional, businesslike. The brightest area is kept away from the borders, nice leading lines. Sharp focus and interesting textures on the mouse. This is one of the best in the challenge.

Perfume

Fabulous lighting and composition. Nice smooth gold tones. Kinda wierd though, the vase or whatever it is feels like it's floating in the air. It's almost surreal. Hmmmm, is that an everyday object? Maybe if you're a king? It looks gold plated. ;-)

The Drinking Straw
by aKiwi

Comment:
Wow, this is truly fabulous. I love the lighting, colors, and textures. Particularly interesting is the way the light leaves streaks along the inside of the straws. The only thing that bugs me is the bit of fuzz on the second straw from the left side on the middle row. If the image was a tiny bit tidier with respect to that and the very slight noise present, I'm thinking it could be a 10. I say 9.

Andy the squirrel

Fabulous photo. Perfect focus, the eyes are nice and sharp. Cute pose. Nice shallow DOF. Unfortunately, I don't count people or animals as objects. So to me, as great as the photo is, it doesn't meet the challenge of "Everyday Objects". (Maybe if the title were "Andy the Acorn gets eaten", then the squirrel wouldn't be the subject and thereby the 'object', but by the title, I assume your subject is the squirrel.)

Dirty Windshield
by GeneralE

Comment:
OMG... that is a windshield!? Cool abstract. It's a nice departure from most of the other entries which so far have all been more "usual" presentations of the subject. I wonder if a lot of post processing was needed to give it the surreal contrast and color?

Reflecting on Codes & Keys

Pretty cool. I really like the shiny surface and the reflections. Is is just a glossy desk surface, or a mirror?
