Had to be a duckie, and here it is :-) I know there's a law against ducking taxes, but isn't there one against tacking ducks too? Thanx for the laugh, and a nice score from me to you.

Nice one. I wish the DOF were such that the label were sharper, though, the red part particularly looks soft.

Raining Tacks on Tax Day

Cute concept, flawed in the execution by the noisiness of the BG image.

Love the object, don't care for the background. Feelliek it could have been a little more luminous. Nonetheless, a strong entry and a strong score from me.

Very strange image. I'm almost convinced you actyally drew blood to make this shot. And the SHAPE of the fleshhere is so ODD. It makes me think "cobra", and it makes me think "turd"... I'm sure you're cracking up by now. I'm scoring you right up there just for shock value alone. Feel free to PM me and let me know if this comment cracks you up as much as the image did me.

Study in wood and tacks

I'm quite taken by this low-key and totally sideways approach to the challenge. Virtually everyoen else is focusing on the "pointiness" of their tacks, here we see them as retainers or delimiters, not penetrators. I hope this does well.

This is hysterical. High points for both originality and bravery in entering this. I wish you well!

Silver Tacks

I like the quiet abstraction of this. A very appeaking entry. I particularly liek the precise way the curve of the left tack is tangent to the edge of the paper. Was this a happy accident or soemthign you worked at?

There's a wonderful purity to this, but I wish it were truly squared up; that seems to me vital to the concept. Strong "minimalist" entry.
