 This is a can opener that I didn't get right. It was lit with a Maglite torch that just cooked the hell out of everything. And try as I might to dumb it down with some clever editing, it didn't quite work.

It's less of a monstrosity that it was originally but I'm hardly proud of this as it's a rushed job. Thanks for looking, but trust me, I can do better.

A pepper mill.

No idea what this is... a connector of some sort? Nice texture at the bottom and a nice range of b/w. Composition is pleasing too.

looks like a gear, looks like the item itself has alot of noise

Something metallic, a tool of some sort? This looks like an extreme macro to me so this could be a washer/nut/bolt type of object. It doesn't seem very clear and the glare is distracting. Also not fond of the border, I feel it is overpowering. Composition is good, the way you placed the object to the side of the frame.

looks like a guide sprocket out of a Johnson propane banana sharpener

Cool, it looks like some kind of old mug, but the teeth make it look like some kind of tool to hold chain or something.

A very industrial sort of picture. good clarity and contrast.

A snap? Looks very close-up. Nice job with the focus, lighting and textures! Wow!
