I've been wondering just how the non-Duracel/Energizer batteries feel. Now I know.

Nice strong image, the only thing is the crop on the bottom that cut off a bit of the battery.

Interesting to look at. The reflections are cool. Not sure about the yellow color cast...juries still out on that one. At first glance it makes me think that your white balance is way off, then I wonder if you didn't do this (yellow) on purpose. Composition is a bit tight (especially the bottom). I think a border would have helped distract the viewer from this a little. More breathing room around the edges would help some. Although I do notice a piece in the lower left corner that suggests you were using a small mirror and had to crop tight? Good luck in the challenge.

I wouldn't have thought about the use of a mirror for a shot like this. Very creative idea!

Nice lighting, reflection and focus, I am just a bit confused by the composition and message.
