Well, I intentionally made this image a bit dark. Purpose being to highlight the metal edges and pull out the shine. The title almost ended up being 'Glints'. I really liked the end results on my monitor. Seeing how this is my Grandfathers pistol I'll probably frame the print. |

I like the way the light hits the gun but I still feel that this image is a bit too underexposed...didn't want to say 'dark' since that could be misconstrued as a commentary on your subject matter. I think a brighter image could have been more effective. |

The subdued lighting adds drama to this image. Clarity is excellent as is the composition. Rate: 7 |

A bit grainy, but the layout and perspective is nice. |

Picture shows darker than I would like...I lose the detail in the gun and the bullets. I adjusted my monitor, just in case, but it still shows dark. |

Too dark. Otherwise, I think the composition is done well. This has potential. |
