Very nice lighting and subjects. I would have liked to see the pencil (the top of it) over to the right instead of the left, so that it's laying on the ruler instead. That would be balance I think. Great job! 9.

So little of the shot is on the liquid here... it's too bad you couldn't get a larger stream.

Nice picture, but seems a bit cluttered. The gold of the compass and pencil look great with the colour of the map, nice lighting - 7

Nice shot! The ring is fairly apparent, but perhaps a bit closer to the bells would help us see this motion blur better.

Comment by frisca:
i would have liked the focus/attention to have been more on the bell portion, its hard to see the motion blur at first with this composition.

You're being too cheap with the drip! Can hardly see it.

Nice image. Good pic quality. I like the black background that you used also. It provides for a nice image. Good job.

Comment by Swashbuckler:
Hi, sorry I didn't get around to commenting this during the challenge. I gave this an 8. The photo is well taken. The black and white contrast levels seem to work very well. It is sharp, very sharp. The composition - good, but not quite GREAT. The use of the sunglasses/mirror works well, but could have been centered in one lens a bit better (it's a nit, but after all, I didn't mark this down that much). The hood is good, but the crop of part of the mouth just bugs me a bit (all or nothing, that's what I say!). I would have liked more mouth, it appears to be smiling and would further the idea of HSH. I know you can't control the weather, but the dark skies...eh, I wouldn't have marked it down for that, but others might.
Finally, the hook - although obviously special to you, I don't see any WOW or other interest(re:hook) item to pull my (non-biased) interest into this photo. I always ask - Would I hang this on my wall? I think you would answer YES! Me, probably not, but honestly it's nothing personal, just didn't "grab" me. I hope this helps. Rob the Swash
