I think the focus is off. It's not really on the bridge. Nice shot, though. Like the dark colors. Reflections aren't harsh. Like the perspective & rotation, negative space.

Lovely idea and picture. Could have been a winner with the focus shallower and sharper on the bridge itself - hope you do well with it

Seems like the focus is more on the fingerboard than the bridge.

I'm glad you shot this....most people probably don't know what a "bridge" on stringed instruments is. A little out of focus it seems, tho

If this competition were not about bridges, I think I'd vote to have the focus be closer to the bridge than the bottom of the fingerboard (if that's what it's called.) But if the photo really was not taken for this competition, it is doubly hard to undersand the point at which it focusses (unless it is a physical limitation of the equipment.) The composition and lighting are very strong - I like the warm and cool lighting. The top 20% iof the photo adds nothing.

This is a nice shot and a nice taake on bridges out of the ordinary. One one thought is that the bridge itself should have been completely in focus.

Nice. I think I would get down closer to the surfact of the violin and fill the frame with the bridge. Make it less recognizabl to increase the impact.

the glare off the body is a bit distracting, would have liked to have seen more of the wood grain
