Great idea. Silhouette (which was also done in this challenge) would have taken attention away from the textures on the hardware.

Creative and interesting.

Interesting. I personally wonder how this might look with a less bold background...but overall this is pretty good.

Nice and sharp, good range of objects and heights to illustrate the concept well.

This shot is nicely done. The idea is original, and is executed very well.

I've seen one of these already, but that doesnt shift my opinion. I reaaly like this, my only complaint is the background make it a little bland.

Great arrangement and use of different shaped materials.

Cute cityscape. I like how the light that reflects off of the one building make it look like a lit up building at night.

A little bit more "land" would give you a better idea of an island. I see a hint to the right and a tiny bit to the right of center near the back.

Good idea; nicely composed.

well placed nuts and bolts - one of the better nuts and bolts shots

A few of these in the challenge, it will be interesting to see which one comes out on top. This is very good.

Nutty cityscapes seem to be popular. This one is nicely done with good lighting and composition. Nice clean background too.

teeny bit of glare but hard to fault otherwise!

a fantastic idea and a perfect interpretation for the challenge...8

I saw another nuts and bolts thing

Not enough depth, something behind wold have helped the impression of a skyline
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good job, the lighting on my work PC screen does not seem as harsh as you mentioned, in fact I would like a little more contrast to make the nuts & bolts stand our a little more from the background.
Background too flat with 1 solid color, Need some gradations.
Definitely need a more reflection to add more interest

Hell of a good effort IMO.

Some depth - another row of nuts and bolts for example - would really lift this. Still damn good though!

not so good attempt at copying Carl Warners shot. Structures are not as realistic, horizon is placed wrongly, light is too flat. to me this looks rather like a pile of screws and bolts than a cityscape

Original and very creative!

I think I would have liked to have seen a little more of the reflection of your "city"
  Photographer found comment helpful.

clever but i think less would have been more in this instance 6
