Ready for the vase

I think you've nailed it! Beautiful composition. All the elements are there but except for the scissors (which look natural in the setting) the other elements just seem to blend in subtly. At first I felt your background should have been solid black but after a while I started to like your out of focus blurred effect. Gives it depth. What is that back there anyway? Are you at the shore? Love the picture. Good Luck. 10.

Very nice! I think if the loops of the handles were touching all the way across and that slight reflection on the left hand pair of scissors was removed (at the crotch; I love the reflections on the loops and the rivets) , it may have looked a little better. Also in the backgound you can see a thin white line that takes away ever so slightly from the beauty of this shot. Great picture though. Very creative.

I can see why you wanted to put the tree in there but it seems to overwhelm the house (the subject)
