Very nicely composed. I like the idea and the colors. The drawbacks for me are the grey tones in the upper right hand side of the BG as well as the sensor dust/dirt up there and the fact that the balls aren't smooth. At first glance they look like metal balls but upon closer inspection are obviously beads with holes through them. Seeing some of the holes and the plastic texture take away from the sleek beauty of the shot. Otherwise very nice though.

I actually thought this was pretty good. It's a really good close-up shot. I don't think people appreciate the effort it takes to stack the pennies with such precision and balance like this :D Or - I guess people can't count :)

Lots and losts of dust on this one. The nicks and such on the pennies are the most interesting thing about this shot.

I really like the idea, maybe with a different background color?

This photo will work just fine without the frame, it'a a little bit distracting, anyway good idea for a nine

Nice macro. I do, however, think that I'd like to see it a little more high-key. The shadows on your whites do provide the image with a bit of depth, but I think them to be more of a distraction than an integral addition to the scene. Also, the gray border feels out of place. I do like borders, I just don't like the gray. 6.
