great but the boarder is a little thick.. would have helped the photo more if the border was smaller.

Simple and quite effective. I think I might have liked it if the drill bits weren't dead center. The lighting bounces off of the edges of them quite nicely. The frame is a perfect addition. 8

I lilke this image, but I would have like it a lot more without the frame. I try to ignore frames, which I dislike generally, but for this mimimalist type of image it is simply too powerful for me to stop looking at.

I would have rated this picture higher had it not been for the heavy gold border. It significantly distracts from your subject.

Good work. I think the drill bits are not quite as sharp as you would expect from this type of product shot. Good luck
