The background is too distracting, all of the colors around the stapler are also distracting. You should try to isolate your subject. Also, try a more interesting composition.

Nice shot, though the background is a little busy and makes it difficult to concentrate on the stapler.

Is it? Yes it is a stapler....sorry but it looks like a stapler and the image is not really extraordinary.

I'd go for this but the background is much too busy.

DOF a bit too narrow, I would have liked to have seen the entire stapler in focus. Lighting is too harsh and there is too much happening colorwise. Way too busy. In addition, I would like to have seen a different angle of view as you can see the distant background of the room in the upper right hand corner. Highlight in upper left is blown out.

I would love to see this stapler on a solid background.

Excellent subject. but, need to polace against a neutral background for maximum effect (existing background is very distracting). Also, need to have whole of paper clip in focus and experiment a bit more with lighting - notice the harsh glare off the top of handle.
