| Odd location - why hammer in the grass? The photo's a bit too centered. Cutting off the bottom grass and adding more of the claw-end of the hammer might have worked better compositionally. It's pretty obvious that no thumbs were harmed in the making of this photo - which gives it a kind of a stiff feel. Focal point is well done. Basically an OK shot that meets the challenge, but doesn't really stand out. |

| ... another 10 come along at once! Nice angle but lacks a feeling of the actual 'accident'. |

| It's too obviously a stationary hammer just placed on the thumb. Decent composition otherwise though |

| Next time, blur the hammer vertically a little so it looks to be in motion. |

| Ouch! The ap is perfect But I find myself wondering why you were hammering nails into a plank of wood in the middle of your garden lol. Perhaps on a work surface in the garage or workshop instead? =) |

| Great job, nice clear shot. I think what I like the most is how simple you kept it, the grass it a perfect backdrop. A great OOPS ...9 |

| I think that this shot would have been better if it looked like the hammer was moving. As it is, it looks like you've just set the hammer on your thumb. |

| interesting composition. can't help feel a horizontal crop would have been stronger. the vertical is a bit awkward. good tones though. |

| Your lighing might be a little better, especially on the hammer. It gets lost against the grass since you chose to do this in black and white. Nice sharp image though. |

| good idea for the theme, but your execution doesn't appear to be anything more than the hammer resting on the thumb. I don't get a sense of you missing the nail and striking the thumb. |

| This seems a little dark. The fact that it's in the grass throws me a little bit, because it's real hard to nail anything on the grass. A different setting (work bench or something) would have added a lot i think. |
