This photo doesn't appeal to me because the subject doesn't interest me and I don't feel it meets the challenge particularly well.

Your photo provoked a strong emotional response in me which may be the highest compliment a photographer can receive.

This feels like an HDR attempt, maybe not. It's easy to overboard with it. In this case I think you've gone too far ... beyond believable improbability.

Just my opinion, and you can feel free to throw it away, but a chiched tired theme. I long for something new.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

I gave this image a 5 during voting. And to explain why...

I think this is an interesting, funky image, which meets the challenge. I had no idea what the tools were until I read the description, but they certainly looked intriguing.

However, what I personally don't like about the image is the almost-but-not symmetry. Even though it's perfectly straight, I get this feeling of tilting to the right when looking at the image because of the arrangement of the tools.
I think with relatively simple images (objects on dark background), probably the most crucial thing to focus on is the composition, and for me it doesn't quite work here. It almost does... I think rearrange them very slightly and it would.

Another thing you could play with is the lighting. I actually really like the light you used here, I think it works really well, but it's another possibility to play with - try different types of directional light, and a variety of reflections, and see what works best.

The focus seems a bit soft in places, no idea if that's intentional (wow, at f18 it really shouldn't be). I like the post-processing, I think you brought out the image nicely.

Anyway, hope that helps. Cool image, well done :)

Any questions, just PM me.

Good to know I successfully messed with your mind!
