Not particularly interesting. Exposure is good. A little more detail would help some and something to actually focus the eye on.

good idea though the light seems a little harsh on the left side so you lose some of the detail.

I really like the composition on this. The lighting is decent, but it seems like the focus could be better. Maybe it is just the texture of the subject, though.

The lighting here looks pretty good, except that it seemed a little too bright in the middle of the curve. The gentle curve has some appeal, but I feel as though my eye is looking for something to be at one of the ends.

it's all about what you don't show. you're too good for dpc. run away now before it's too late! I'll start this at 10 and maybe bump it up later.

Nice study in shape and line...I'd suggest a crop of the top and even out the background on the right corner. This would be a great print. :)
