I tried to juice up the colors but there's some red reflecting off the backs of the cards which made it impossible without spot editing. (it may be possible but I don' know photoshop THAT well)

I put up a print that's a wider format (it can be cut down) and spot edited to really bring out the red

I do like the sharpness(that i can see the texture of the cards), composition and it meets the challenge topic. So technically I think is good. But it is very low in interest, there is nothing that makes me want to 'keep looking' at your photo. I think you have a lot of tecnical skill, maybe need a more interesting subject

I like the angle this is taken at. Plus I like the reflection of the metal and the fabric. Great job!

Not crazy about the rotation, not quite sharp enough in my opinion

Should have definately made the Jack level with the horizon. That would give it more "power" I think. And also use other cards beside the Aces. In my mind, the Aces compete with the Jack. Use 3's, 5's, 4's, etc. Good shot anway.

Great idea and composition! I just wish the red were a little brighter to emphasize the color.
