CRITIQUE CLUB!

Sorry this is so late.

Well, there's really not much more that I can say that hasn't already been covered in your comments below. The hot spot of light on the right is a bit much for me, but I'm sure you made that conscious decision and I can't argue with that. The subject of the image is perfect for the challenge and, alien or not, it definitely does depict motion.

This would probably be effective in B/W as well, as you might lose some of the prism effect around the edge of the spinning head. Some higher contrast, either in color or B/W would also bring the belt (?) out more from the background.

Great depth of field, though. I think it was very well done.

Rob :)

Not a bad photo. Light is a bit to harsh for my liking but you needed it like that to grab the motion in this shot. Better than average.

A beautiful image, well composed and exceptionally well lighted. Outstanding use of exposure. The title is great as well. Congrats, well done!

A bit too alien for me - I have no idea what I\'m looking at. I think it\'s moving...
