Good shot. Diffused light, without glare.

Lighting's been done very well with this image. The bright core surrounded by pink and dfferent layers of green. I know it would break the format of the contest, but cropping the top space and having a "panoramic" format for the frame I think improves the composition...

Nice pic. The only thing I can see here is that it runs downhill a little from R to L. Or maybe I'm just making that up. The composition and framing seem to be missing something. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's well taken, I just don't find it terribly interesting. Sorry - Inspzil

Quite interesting! High tech yet pretty. I like the pastel colors, and the lighting is really nice. I hope to find out more about this image. What are the disks on? I'm puzzled but really impressed! :-) Nice, nice work. Anyway, best of luck in the challenge. Grayce 9

Interesting lighting on the platters. Why does it look like it's on a stove burner? =)

Is this a light? The lighting is really nice, but if it's not a light... I don't know what it is. It sort of looks like the innards of a hard disk... but I'm not sure it could be. All in all decent shot, looks good.

I really like the symmetry and colors of this. I think a closer crop at the top would have made it a little stronger, though (in my opinion). karmat

Very good colors and a new perspective on the computer theme.
