It's a pity someone did almost this same shot. I opined there that a different background or a brass tone to the clock would have made the ringing more obvious, but you have a similar problem -- darker background for this one might have made it stand out more. Anyhow, it IS on topic, and it's a nice shot, very clean, but the clapper is a little TOO blurry -- maybe a slightly shorter exposure time?

Awesome shot of the clock! Too bad you couldn't bring out the motion of the "hammer" hitting the bells more, but very good anyway!

I'm not sure whether or not I like the fact that I can see your reflection at the top of the alarm clock, but I like the shadow and the whole tone of the photo.

The lighting is perfect. It takes a second here though to see that the clock is ringing right now. Perhaps a macro of just the bells and the clapper? Anyway, 7.

O - I admit I'm one of the ones who marked down for originality in this challenge. I think if you could've done something a little different with the lighting on this one, It would've helped. And its not at all because I think the lighting is bad on this one, just maybe not had it the same across the whole picture. I picture this in my head with the bright light in the middle and substantially darker on both sides, like putting some kind of "v" directly behind the vase so that the light on both sides of it was diverted, so it wasn't quite so intense. Maybe if you could've made it where it looked like the light was coming OUT of the vase it would've done more for me. Just thoughts though. Its really a solid picture as is. Bob
