Greetings from the Critique Club...
This photo meets the challenge with no doubt, but unfortunately, it doesn't go much beyond that. In the greater scheme of things, meeting the challenge is only the primary stepping stone of a successful image in these competitions. There is simply nothing compelling about your subject choice or your perspective. This challenge required taking a look at subject choices that have interesting curves, shapes, and textures and then getting creative with a photo composition. Your vacuum cleaner has curves, shapes, and textures, but in my humble opinion, they just don't interest me from this perspective. I'm not sure what you could have done to make this into a more intriguing image.
I see that you are new to DPChallenge, so my current suggestion to you is to spend some time looking around the challenges. You will see a lot of great images :) You will also see what sorts of ideas and themes it takes to rise to the top of the pack :) |

| Interesting close-up, but just not much to hold my attention. |

| Nice macro of the bristles. Good use of DOF. Mine never look this clean. I think a crop that just had the green plastic as the frame boundaries would have been a stonger composition. |

I really like the idea, but it's quite there, imo. The swoop of brushes in the middle two squares is actually quite interesting. If you had moved the shot over a tad to the right and gotten the start of the next swoop, it might have been more interesting.
Also, usually the rollers are pretty black, did you try playing with the levels to get a little more contrast? 5 |

| a great sujet, hope you can shoot it again with more sharpness and a little more contrast, it's just too pale now, 6 |
