Comment by Kavey:
Very cool idea and wonderfully graphic. And my favourite colour is YELLOW! The left and right side aren't balanced, I find I want to move over to the left a bit.
7, Kavey

Excellent picture. On my top 10. The illusion of curved pencils is great! A little shiny on the right.

Well, lemme just start by saying that I guess yer wondering "WHY ME!"... lol.. this would have been a very nice photo for the next challenge... But I guess you have already heard that and will continue to hear it throughout this challenge :) I'm giving this photo a 10 purely on its creativity. This image creates a tough lighting situation, but you seem to have managed that fairly well. The lighting coming in from the right side is a little harsh and the shadow on the left side looks a little strange... Your depth of field is excellent, as is the overall composition... At least you don't have to go shopping before you do the next challenge :) Great shot.. I hope I see this one as a high scoring finisher this week :) - jmsetzler

Can I swap eyes and artistic talent with you? The most impressive thing to me in this picture is the symmetry in this picture. The bluish background in the upper left throws that off a bit.

Too bad we didn't know that this week is "Pencils." I think you would have won.

Great job, and you already have a jump for this week! (bet you won't hear that much :-)) Compositionally, think it should be framed more to teh left, so that there is negative space on the right. That might make it look a little less overexposed as well. karmat
