 Copper heatsink on my Computer CPU. Had to take most bits out of Computer and place outside in late afternoon sunshine to get reasonable lighting as I don't have appropriate indoor setup yet

A little too tight crop from top and bottom.

What on earth is that thing? Intesting use of light, a bit of glare in places though. Composition a bit cluttered for my taste. 7

Don't they usually have something consumer oriented on their cover? This is something I don't even recognize, I just know it's something in the guts of the computer. Maybe a better cover for a technical journal?

The tilt is kind of extreme, makes the shot a little confusing. A polarizer would of probably taken some glare off of the copper. -5

Great composition, color and content. Lighting is just right. This image and the angle you have selected begs the would-be reader to look inside and find out what it is all about.

There are few cases in this challenge where the photographer's cover shot is better than the real magazine's. Yours is, in fact, much better than what they usually put on their cover. They should hire you.

A nice choice of magazine and subject for this challenge, and very dramatic/pretty. I don't get inside my computer often and must ask what on earth that is, however....

That's a heck of an interesting Heat Synch (?) Good color and angle and would work very well on the covor of PC World. Good Job.
