I have just received a sewing machine like this one (Singer), but still in perfect working condition. Nice photo

Comment by kawhona:
It might have been more effective to underexpose slightly to bring out the saturation in the backgrounds the main subject could be profiled without loss ... I think that would have made the picture much more effective.

Comment by colourBlind:
Nice and sharp, but perhaps a bit too bright for my liking - perhaps it's because the background is brighter than the subject? I don't know. I can't quite put my finger on it. I also find the shadow-play a bit distracting, making it hard to see the lovely patterns in the iron.

I do like the way you have composed the shot, concentrating on only part of the sewing machine. It makes the viewer think a bit to work out what it is.

I think this would be a stronger entry if more of the actual machine was in the shot and the title was different.
