*Critique Club*
General: I like how the light hits this object and reflects onto the table. The focus seems to be a little bit off but this could be due to the bright light.
Exposure: IMO it's just a tad over exposed. There are a few points on the object that are totally washed out due to the strong lighting. 1/3 of a stop less might have helped.
Composition: I like the reflection. It looks like a hand trying to grab the object. I think the composition might be better if the entire reflection were included in the image. This might also help with the placement of the object within the frame (not so central). The table is gorgeous but it distracts the viewer from your center of interest. Also, maybe use a background that more relates to the object. This would help place it and give the image some context.
Impact: I had to look at this image for a long time before I was drawn into it. This is probably due to the tight crop. The strong lighting also takes away from the impact of this image. Using a more neutral background would also draw the viewer to the object.
Hope this is what you were looking for. Feel free to disagree with any of it. Remember, photography is very subjective.
Keep shooting and experimenting.

| For all of you wondering what this was.... it's a massage knob. Massage therapists use it often isntead of their thumbs. :) |

| I like the colors here and the harsh lighting seems almost appropriate. I have no idea what I'm looking at, though. |

| Hi, What a .... funny looking object.. it looks a bit rude *wink wink*. I like the fact that the sun shining on it on this object makes the bubbles shine out. Lovely. I don't really like the choice of background. the colours don't seem to mix very nicely. |

| Kinda interesting, but I have no idea what it is. A solid background might have enhanced the subject. |

| Quite a contrast between your subject and the background. Maybe if I knew what I was looking at, I could vote on this better. The shadow is interesting. The background just seem inappropriate for the purple plastic thingy. Up picked up the texture of the table nicely. You can see the grain and scratches of a well worn surface. Don't know what else to say. 4 Good luck in the challenge. |

| Certainly an unusual subject and an interesting colour, not sure I like the red wood surface though. Technically very wel done. |

| I don't know what that is but I'm fairly sure I never saw one in an office. It's lit rather brightly and doesn't grab me as an interesting image. |
