		| | Love the Colouring & can almost feel the texture in the wooden tooth picks. My favourite so far (10 Pointer) |

		| | Good take on the challenge.  I think either more contrast, or leave it in color instead of the sepia.  Perhaps even change the color of the background entirely. |

		| | Great! Sepia is perfect for this! 
 If I could change one thing I would love for this to be in sharper focus from back to front. The narrow DoF doesn't really add anything, in my opintion.

		| | Sepia tone and DOF are perfect.  The sharpness is amazing and I love the graduated lighting/background as well as the shadows. |

		| | Very pretty focus and light. I also like the shallow dof use here. Good luck in the challenge.

		| | The DOF might have been increased a little to improve the strength of the lines. |

		| | nicely done abstract, good dof, like that the background compliments the color in the subject (minor nit - border detracts -- a bit too large) as presented, well done. |
