A little too dark and not enough contrast.

Just a bit too dark...I did like the seal though

In truth, these appear to be folded and sealed pieces of stationery. hooray! Color, lighting and composition add to the antiquated feel of the elements in the photo. Nicely done.

Beautifully done. I love the soft lighting and the texture of the paper. Nice composition, well placed articles. Nice seal. Great!!!

The color tones give that feel of the era when these items were actually used. Good job.

The lighting gives it an authentic feel but doesn't help the contrast. (Which I feel a bit more is needed)

Nice concept and tones.

Nicely done. The tone and softness work well together. The positioning of the bottom wax seal could be improved.

Perhaps an extreme macro shot of the pen only would have been a more interesting shot, I know I wished for a pen like this for this challenge. This image is so dark, and the eye doesn't focus on any one spot.

Way too dark for my taste.

The lighting, and especially the tone, brings a lot to the picture. I don't think the shadow between the envelopes is helping though. 7 for the lovely mood...

Nice composition but lighting should be improved.

Nice moody shot. But perhaps just too dark. Well composed, though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Love the color, shadows, would have been better if the bottom was in focus

gorgeous lighting...has a certain mood to it, almost like a victorian mood or something. i cant articulate that exactly, but great shot.
