 Hammer and nail, not a real impact, i balanced the hammer on the nail and used a lighter to create the fire/sparks :-)

Well done, but you got hammered too with the score. You deserved more!

The lighting on the hammer could be improved so it wouldn't blend in with the background near the top. I wish there was a way to make the sparks stand out because theya re what make the image so interesting!

I was hoping someone did a shot like this. Good job with the spark capture. I do find myself wish the hammerhead was a bit more lit up.

great impact indeed. the lighting on the subject was just right and the good use of dof make it stand out. but i find the background very dark and the upper half gives a lot of negative space. overall this is a very nice image
