nice shot i especially like the color gradient on the metal but imho the shadow could show more character/emotion possibly with the use of timer and tripod

I like this. I also enjoy taking shadow self-portraits. I wish there was a bit more definition in the details of the scratches and rust, but otherwise nicely done. Good luck.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

This is a shot I don't get. When I saw where it placed, I was stunned. I am surprised that it beat a number of shots it beat. On second look, I think I know why.

This is a really decent, average photo (5.2ish) but there is one glaring weakness: that overexposed bit of it. That part ruins the whole photo for me, but obviously when people voted, they took into consideration the photo as a whole. I wish I'd been able to do that at the time. Your focus is on, the colors are nice - but that spot is so overly distracting that people aren't going to see what's good about it.

Oh, and did you mean Jewels? I see you're in Germany - still gotta check your spellings or the English speakers will eat your shot up just for that spelling mistake.

Happy shooting and good luck

Fits the competition theme perfectly! Lighting is a bit harsh- but overall really like this!
