very interesting perspective and composition with the branch. Shots like this are really tough to expose everything correctly since some parts are a lot closer than others. You did a good job of it, but it still doesn't look spot on. The best way to do something like this, I've found, is to take 2 pictures and then combine them. Of course, that isn't allowed for the challenges, but I recommend you give it a try, it could really make this interesting image pop some more.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this was probably shot with a Canon EOS-10D. Close? I even think I might know who shot this. Great work. 7

Guess I was off on this one. Still my top pick.

The white beads are a little too blown out, and it's difficult to see much of the dark ones, particularly in the top of the shot.

interesting subject, but the picture is to dark for me and not clear

More interesting in terms of topic than many office supplies, but I'm not sure about the tightness of focus; having so much blur foreground combined with the bright highlights detracts from the photo as a whole.

nice shot and good composition, i feel the lighting is too much some of the objects look washed out.and some detail is lost.

Good subject matter, fitting title and nice composition. The lighting is a little harsh on the white areas. Well done!
