I like the idea, detail, colors and composition. I think a more balanced lighting would have worked better. Also you can create nice effects with objects like these with a light from behind.

fun picture; would have been even more amusing to swap the pens and add some sense of puzzlement

Creative and colorful.
This shot is screaming for even lighting and a bit more dof to sharpen it up.
Too bad it's an open challenge and no spot editing can be done. ((6))

I really like this idea. Well executed but I'd like to see the other pen strokes extend a bit longer like the blue one and almost touch the tip of the pen. Lighting is fairly direct but it works well here for some reason and I can't explain. Maybe because of the shadow it makes with the blue pen. Lots of little minor details do hurt the score a bit but excellent work. 8

Interesting idea and composition... I can't see any advantage of not having the entire image in nice sharp focus....

Lovely use of what looks like low afternoon light. I'm not voting down for this in any way so the following point is about my preferences for this image as a whole rather than within the challenge but I do find that the width of the image emphasises the verticals rather than the lovely path. I wonder if a portrait or square format would emphasise the potentially strong leading lines of the path?
