The horizontal line in the reflection is distracting. Very Nice to look at.

I played with some marble shots this week, but I didn't get any keepers! I love your composition here, as well as the black foreground and background. I'm curious as to how you got the reflection to fade to black like that.
OK down to business... what would I try to improve if it were my shot?
Your colors are very vibrant for the first three marbles, but the color in the fourth is lost. I would have tried for a yellow marble for that fourth one. Also, your focus is very sharp on the 2nd and 3rd marbles, a tiny bit soft on the first one. If your camera is limiting you, I would have tried for a sharp first marble and let the fourth go a little soft. Thie is a very subtle difference, not a big issue.
Overall, very nicely done. Great use of negative space, nice minimal border. Good luck! JD Anderson

Hi Turbotech,

This is an interesting, thoughtful shot. I'm not entirely sure it raises questions in my mind, but that's beyond the scope of my critique. The technical aspects of this photo are well done. I like the composition (though it's not perfectly centered) and I really like the lighting. What I don't like is that the shot appears to be oversharpened.. I actually think a bit of a blur would make this shot feel more mysterious and add to the questioning nature - but that's just me. Apart from that, there's not much more I can say.

Good job and good luck in future challenges
-Matt
