an obvious thing to shoot, but done pretty well. The blue reflection or whatever it is is a bit distracting..

Nice closeup of the thistle. Good texture, and I like the composition with it leaning slightly on a diagonal. I like it.

+ Lots of texture, nice earthly colours, reasonable composition.
- I think there is too much of the flash visible; photo isn't that interesting to me.

Great subject, I find the bottom part a little distracting. (5)

Nice capture of the dried grasses. What's in the background? It's very distracting.

Comment by adine:
good idea for a subject. I like all that red. The light is a bit glaring, especially off the garage door. A couple of lights pointing from different sides would create more interesting shapes and textures.

Nice idea. TO many of these objects clash for attention though. A bit more time selecting one or two and thinking about angle of shot, composition and framing would have helped. Example - that jack is an ideal object for playing around with and seeing how its function (lifting very heavy things) could be reflected in a composition.

Comment by gpierson:
this totally meets the challenge but the harsh white flash and distance away from subject make it boring. This would great with flood lighting and standing on a ladder to shoot it from above.

Interesting approach to the challenge. I might try another disposition of the elements for a more appealing composition.
