Nice one. I like the colours and DOF and your placement of the pencils. Looks great and different to how it's been done before.

Ah, very, very pretty! Nice composition, and I love the circle formed by the tips.
I wonder what it would look like against a white or black background with the contrast increased?

The bokeh came out great on this pic. Not a new idea but a well executed one. 7

Right! Bet you've gotten a couple of "been done before" comments, huh? Nice choice of b/g and good symmetry in your composition. Bumping.

Generally, I'm quite tired of seeing shots of couloured pencils in challenges. But this one stands out. Lovely bokeh in the background. -1 for cliche. 8

I like the background blur. It really draws the eyes to the pencil points. Nice colors.

What I like: haha, composition and color! Big surprise there, right?
What might improve it: Might have got a higher score with a solid background, but I sort of like the one it has now. Something doesn't seem quite right with the focus and I can't put my finger on it.

Nice arrangement of the pencils. Your color choice for the background is not my favorite but I won't mark down for that.

I wish the focus was a bit sharper, but it's still pretty good.

I am sure you would disagree or you wouldn't have entered the photo in this challenge, but IMO DNMC.

I've seen this before but I do like the use of Bokeh. 8

Really great shot--not right for this challenge--but I like it anyway.

Neat idea, well executed. I like the off-centre composition. The background is just a little distracting - I would have desaturated the yellow channel a little (I think that's allowed with basic editing) to make it less intrusive. That might mean replacing the yellow pencil with one of a different colour, though...

I love the image, nice and colorful, but it's not stationery???

Pencils, arrange in a designer way, add bokeh, and bingo.... Probably not as easy as one might suspect. A nice, if cliched effect. 7.

nice...not sure if the background adds or distracts in this, maybe a solid colour would be better
