Look, it's straws with holes! :-D I've never seen curlers (I think that's what they are) in so many colors? This is fun and should do ok for you. Good luck!

A Little Bit o'Grit
by tfarrell23

Comment:
First thing I notice is the color-matching letterbox border. Kinda works for me...not sure that I wouldn't have liked black better. I like how you've centered this drill bit. As far as the photography goes, this seems oversharpened, the highlights are blown, and the shadows are noisy (could be texture of the bg?). I'm wavering. You were either intentionally going for a high-key type look, or you're covering up technical flaws with post-processing. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you were going for the artistic, unique approach. :-) Scored it earlier at a 6...still a 6 after commenting. Good luck!

Colorful, a maybe a bit gimmicky. Certainly stands out! :-) Good luck.

My Umbilical Cord

I went back and forth on whether I liked this or not at first. I have to say now that I DO like this entry. At first it felt cluttered but now I can see that great length went into getting the correct spacing and flow in the combined pieces of this comp. It does have a strong stock/studio feel to it that may turn off a few "artistic" types, but in the end this should do quite well I think. Giving this a upward score adjustment at time of commenting. Good luck.

Stairs

Lovely staircase that certainly was worth photographing for this challenge. One thing...I can't help but be drawn to the door at the top of the stairs. Kind of interrupts the flow and symmetry. I have a suggestion for a slight mod in comp that I'll share if you're interested. Overall, nicely seen. Good luck in the challenge.

Nice, simple concept, yet fun. Should do just fine with this. Good luck!

~ Drilled ~

Comment:
Drill bits were on my list of items to consider. I hadn't thought of putting them on a mirror. That's an interesting choice that works ok (be better if the mirror was clean - sorry, couldn't resist). Something about this still doesn't present optimally I'm afraid. Maybe with some space between the drill bits, or only three and have the variance in lenght a little more pronounced? As is, they clump together somewhat. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Fun play with light. I'll be interested to read what method you used when the challenge is over.

Flamingo Curves

Comment:
The curved feathers add a LOT to this, rather than just the traditional curved neck. Nice comp, good details, controlled exposure. Should do ok with this one. Good luck.

Geometry of Nature

Hmmm...second time around on this one as I'm doing some commenting. It's growing on me a bit more. I like how you've done a nice job controlling the lighting. The subject certainly fits the challenge quite well and is pleasing to look at. It does help to dust a little better. ;-P Good luck!
