Composition/subject - Have to say I like the composition of the first one better as far as uniqueness (though it did take a minute to see it!) but the overall composition of this works just fine, too.

Technical - I like the contrast of the "shiny" watch against the "matte" of the gun surface, but would prefer the whole watch face in focus. I'm not sure why you used several flashes and a long exposure - to avoid glare, maybe? Dark background is OK since it has a diff texture than the gun and in a way almost conceals it, which to me relates back to the original a bit.

Meets challenge - Yep, and I like that you tried a different take on it, too.

My opinion - I gave it a 6 in voting. Have to admit I didn't know what the original was, but I think the score here is actually better despite being lower simply due to a "shift" in voting and competition since your first one was entered. I'm not all that fond of guns, or how frequently they seem to appear in pictures here, but I try to not let that influence my impression of a picture.

I'd say this did a little better than the original. Way to go!! Now why don't my shots of this place do this well? :-)

Underrated IMO. I like this shot - very peaceful feeling to it.

Much better in that it's bigger for one thing! Also like the inclusion of the building behind - not sure if that was in the first shot or not.

I don't know what the first one was, but this one is a very sweet, gorgeous portrait.

A much better job this time! I like the light coming in from the left across the top of the table, which gives a twinkle to the eye of the first bear!
