My first submission, done in a great hurry.
I'll say it myself... Poor lighting, may have been a reasonable idea had I got the pens lined up, and the white balance a bit better. THe green is washed out/blown out due to the photoshop manipulation to try to get the paper whiter.

Thanks for the comments.

All appreciated. I'm amazed I did as well as this and agree with all the poor white balance comments, and the pink comments. It was the most purple looking highlighter I could find.

Re the saturation. I didn't change it very much at all from real life. Those things really did glow that much..

The white balance seems to be a little off, I think. The paper looks blue instead of white to me. Great idea though!

neat idea, the blue paper helps the image alot, if you had used white paper it may have bleached the image out, good job

This is an interesting idea, however I don’t find highlighters all that exciting. Clever picture though. I like the composition and technically the photo looks very well done. I just wish there were more going on here to hold my attention. I gave it a 5.

Too much saturation. Eye's hurt. Nice idea though...

Nice and simple. Good choice of colour for background. Like the twist. 9

Clever idea. Like it.

Could do with making the whites look less blue, however - different lighting, or alter your camera's white balance before you shoot? I had the same problem with my 'Color' challenge entry.

Love this idea, but I think it would be more eye-catching with a white background. Just an idea...

Creative title and placement, making a dull subject (sorry to say that) interesting. 5
