Faster than a speeding...by

I'm not getting the sense of speed here. When I first saw this actually, I thought it looked like a pencil tip. Didn't really give off a really great first impression thinking it was a pencil.
However, now knowing that it is a bullet, that then makes me think that you processed the heck out of this and maybe it would have been best left alone?
It's a bit grainy, and the saturation does look like it's been jacked up a bit. I'm not quite sure I like that effect.
The angle and framing/cropping are good. I think you caught the bullet falling at a nice time. Your patience paid off there.
I wonder though if you could try something like a long exposure shot to make it look like it was actually moving. That could have been really effective. There is a tutorial Here
//www.dpchallenge.com/how.php?HOW_ID=21 on how to do this if it is within your camera limitations.
The bckground is good. No distracting elements there. White is a good color background for this shot.
Focus is hard to tell because of the graininess of the subject. It doesn't really look like it's fucussed that well. Is this why you post processed so much?
Fits the theme of the matrix nicely I think. With all those stopped bullets in the movie, it worked. Not with the title you put on it though.
