Almost looks drawn rather than photographed. Nicely metallic and twisted, though.

I like the gold tones and the title is snappy.

I am starting to wonder if drillbits should be added to the list of cliche items...

I dig the artsy feel to this. That can be hard to do with a drill bit. I haven't seen many classy looking drill bits in my day. But you've managed it here. I like the placement, BG and borders. Seems a bit over sharpened to me. That may have been intentional judging by your title. It does help the gritty feel. and also there seems to be a lot of noise in your shadows. that's my only nit pick. Good Luck in the challenge.

The blown highlights take a little away from it for me, but I still like the shot.
