Good execution of the concept. The dead-center circles turned me off, therefore a lower rating. Perhaps lightening the shadows would lead the eye.

which end of the results were you aimimg at?
Not keen on the high contrast between central bright and dark circles. Also straight line due to lighting at 9 and 3 o'clock break the symmetry of the circles.

Very nice. This has the wow factor that a lot of photos are missing. If you haven't already tried it, maybe a crop to comply to rule of thirds could make it even better?

IMHO the DOF is poor and the lighting is to harsh.

Comment by Dr.Confuser:
I am having trouble liking this image. Firstly, it is an over used cliche in this challenge (not you fault) but more importantly there are flaws that detract from the image: The dark upper right hand corner, the hot spots on the left and the indeterminate focus on the background. The centered and mostly symetric composition doesn't create any interest in the subject. Sorry to sound negative, but maybe the feedback will help for next time.

common theme, think could be a little more artistic if crop'd differently.

Is this the circle challenge? Just kidding. The bottom part of the record doesn't seem to be in focus. Maybe a wider depth of field would help.

Your depth of focus needs to be increased. Narrow your aperture (increase the actual number of your f stop), and that will help this.
