I like the clean lines, the position of your subject, the B&W treatment, doesn't strike me as over PSed (little jaggy on lower left lip),meets my criteria for a 6-7 (a mundane item that looks more interesting to me than when I see it day-to-day). Since I don't know which shot you did enter - hope that feedback helps in some way.

Nice sharp focus. I like the shadow too. I would have given it a 7, at least.

I noticed in your comments, you liked this better, but didnt post because you thought people would think it was too PSed. First, I don't think it looks too PSed at all. Secondly, screw the voters, do what you like. :-)

I agree - straws are ordinary things that you can make it look extraordinary. I've seen this but is as great as them. Good Luck!

This photo appears to be all about color rather than texture.

Beautiful colors, but a "touch me" texture just isn't there.

I like the picture sub I don't think it fits the subject - more like reflections

THis needs to be bigger so we can see what's going on. the crop should be a little tighter too so there is minimal bare black space in the composition. Great subject for a macro tho
