Lovely clarity and colors. The border's cool too. The only thing not working for me is the sharp angle in the curve of the slinky. A more gently sweeping curve would work well here. For me at least.

This is just lovely. So soft and almost fragile looking. This type of photo can be a love it or hate it thing with DPC voters. I hope this week they are lovin' it. I am. Good luck in the challenge!

Oh, this looks very cool. I have NO idea what so ever what it is, but it looks awesome. The colors are amazing, as is the texture. I just wish the whole image were in sharp focus. That would really seal the deal for me.

I love your idea and lighting. The only big drawback is the surface you have the mints on being so dirty or dusty looking. That's probably really hurting your score I would guess. Otherwise nicely done though.

Wonderfully clear and sharp. The composition and colors, even the clarity of the white in the BG are stunning. I'd prefer if the upper lefthand corner were darker. The lightness up there draws my eyes away from the real focus. But overall, very well done.

Took me a moment realize these were rubber bands. I thought they were some sort of foam at first. Very nice colors and clarity. The background is a nice crisp white and the black border is great too. not sure about the white inner border but that's my only nitpick.

One of these things is not like the others...

Could use a snappier title, but we don't always have the muse do we? My title suffers from that this week as well. Nice photo though. The sharpness is right where it needs to be and I like that the screw is the only one with rust, makes it stand out so much more. Nicely done.

Wonderful clarity. The colors and lines are fantastic as well. Great capture.

This is always a cool subject. I've seen it done much better technically. no offense meant. Just that that would hurt my vote(if I were voting). But it is still exceptionally beautiful.

Cool spider. very freaky. This would be better if the spider were in focus rather than the left side of the web. But otherwise, nice colors and cool subject.
