I'm not really sure how this fits the challenge. It appears to me that it was shot from inside something like a jar? or bottle. An interesting photo to look at tho. Wow this looks like you move the tripod head almost 360 degrees. Interesting but I bet you get hammered by the voters. I would like to know how this was done. Well done and good luck in this challenge. <9>

I can't really see what is going on. I don't know what to make of it.

Comment by CLarson557:
Lighting seems a bit harsh on the right, especially on the metal part of the pencils causing the distracting reflection. Perhaps shining the light on the other side would have been more appropriate for these subjects.

I think it would be better if the lighting were more even.

Comment by Riponlady:
I'm getting quite a glare from the metal tops so lighting could be better. Nice idea - some tattier pencils would have added interest.

Comment by MudHut:
Maybe a more natural light would have worked better as the flash bounces off the metal

I wish the metal part were sharper. They are a tad "hot" as well. Maybe tone down the glare on them. The linear quality is interesting.

focus too soft, lack of detail
