Not bad. Good choice of background. The dark blue brings out the colors of the balls-which are your subjects. I give you a 10. |

I like it! Nice colors but beat up enough to show use. If I'd change anything it would be the carpet. I'd like to see this on wood or tile, or pottery or iron...etc. Still very nice though. |

I love this shot...The connection to the challenge is there, and I love the worn off colors of the marbles. |

Nicely handled macro that brings out the use/age of the marbles and the bag. Well done! Jak |

Nice composition.... but what does it have to do with the topic? |

This is fantastic - I adore the colours and the way you've got low down to take the shot. The only regret is the way the pouch is just clipped at the top and the leather tie at the right. The carpet works well as a background too. It leaves me wishing that I still had my marbles (!) and could play for penny chews!
Having now looked regularly at all 7 of my score 9 choices, I have decided that this one is definitely my absolute favourite and am upping my score to a ten. I know it's not perfect, technically, because of the slight clipping at two edges, but I do love it. |

colorful, sharp, and very well-worn. the gigantic drawstring occupying the right half of the picture is a little distracting, but helps partition the picture |

Superb... I can't see anything distracting in this photo.....The angle, clarity, lighting and cropping are all complimentary to each other. =10 Syamjonimi |

wonderful subject. A little deeper field would make that fuzzy front marble snap! |

Though I think the navy blue background (carpet?) works well, I think that something with less texture might force my eye to look at the texture of the pitted marbles more. I think I would have cropped it a little less closely, and gotten in the small parts of the leather bag that seems artificially chopped. Otherwise, neat subject, composition, and lighting. |

This is an *excellent* shot. I love the arrangement and the subject is whimsical and suitable. One of my favourites so far this week. |

A few really nice oldies. |

Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject. Composition - very good Technical Aspects - very good Meets Challenge - yes+ Visual Impact / Originality - very good/high I'd thought of this, have the bag, but no marbles. Just a great shot.

nice shot. All around good. |

I love the pits and markings on these! I'd prefer another surface for them to be on rather than carpet I think. Still, a 7 :-) |

I think the kids of today really missing some good times by not drawing a circle in the dirt everyone putting x number of marbles, then shooting for the lot.... 7 |

This is so close to being a classic that it hurts – for me, the bit missing is the rest of the bag and the string and a bit more of ground. The central theme is tops, evokes great childhood memories, it's got great feel, it tells a story – only thing wrong here (in my opinion) is there's to much of the central theme. Loses points, but I like the idea so muchâ€Â¦ I like the colour - I like the picture. I really am tempted to hit the 10 – but 9 is justifiedâ€Â¦ Good luckâ€Â¦ |
