I have seen this before but did not comment on it so doing so now.....
I LOVE this idea, and the detail, and focus, is excellent.
I also like the pattern this creates and also the soft metallic colors.....
A favorite now, and going into, my favorites.....

fishing rocks...if you had a few more items that come in a tackle box you would have a print worthy picture (even more so than it is) 9

I love the arrangement of the pieces and the fact that you gave the image a well defined focal point. This should score well and is deserving of a high score.

Meets the challenge well but a rather boring composition. While the large weight could act as a focal point for this, the sheer volume of hooks and whatever the little pieces are overwhelm the shot to the point of distraction. In part I think this is because of all the whitespace. This might have been easier on the eyes if there were less whitespace and actually just a pile of hooks and the other stuff. Then it would look more like a background to the large weight. Nice shot overll. 4.
