Good concept. Focused well. These pen heads are very difficult - I tried them once and gave up. I think a consistent background and floor is better in this situation - or put the background way, way back so that it is not in focus and not lighted. The reds seem off also - might want to check the color balance. Hope I have not offended you with the suggestions.

Looks like a flock of owls. A tad brighter would have added more drama.

Yummy. Highlights are classic for showing the roundness. Even though it is morning, I think a tad brighter would have been better. Wish could have found a larger cluster for a more interesting composition.

The washed out image works surprising well. The center white cylinder could be a number of things - a lamp base, a stream of water, a death ray, ...

Frodo, you must throw the Ring into the fires from which it was forged.
Great shot.

Has a lot more punch than the original. I'm discovering the importance of color balance as well. Unfortunately, I'm a liberal which means I can see both sides of an issue and that means I quickly adapt to the circumstance and mentally adjust.
