Very nice idea! I like the simple composition and the lighting. Focus is good, too. I wonder how it would look in b&w because it does not have much colour and I think it would look better when completely desaturated. -stephan |

So what? Some of these pencils work this way. No excitement in this picture. |

It's a pencil Jim, but no as we know it :o) It's a great shot; it has a clinically clean feel, it’s sharp, well composed and well lit. The only thing missing – a matter for debate since there is actually led in the picture, and technically, I suppose, a plastic pen with led in it could be construed as a pencil – is the pencil itself. I’m sure lots of others have, or will, point this outâ€Â¦ But, it’s still a great shot. (8) Hope that’s fair, personally, I think it IS a great shot, but I can’t see a proper pencil. |

very nice detail in this photo. I also like the diagonal view. Working on white backgrounds is not easy :) There is a very minor amount of image deterioration in the lower right corner that may be a result of level adjustments and uneven subject lighting. The caliper looks very good, but the pencil and it's elements seem a little oversharpened possibly. I'm not meaning to be picky here :) I am just pointing out some things that I see on a very well executed photo... = 9 - jmsetzler |

Nice shot. Appears to have some post processing. Hope not. |

Nice and crisp, but don't like the way that the right is within the frame but the left bleeds out of it (can't think of the word I want, bleed isn't quite it really). Like the monotone colour scheme. Is it colour and then desaturated or are the items all black white and grey really? 5, Kavey |

Composition - quite good Technical Aspects - quite good Meets Challenge - yes Visual Impact / Originality – high/good Other suggestions – I'd also like to see this with a background that is not so harsh

I may have liked this better with a colored background, but the concept is good and clarity is wonderful. |

Very simple and elegantly done. Nice contrast, composition and interesting idea. Great use of different tones. 9 Ruthann |

cleanly done shot, other than the upper right corner. Very technical, not very emotionally interesting |

Interesting. At first, I thought this was a black and white. Further study though, proves me wrong. There is a gold piece in the middle of the inside part of the pen. Was the ALMOST black and white intentional? The little gold piece makes me like this even better I think. Excelent lighting and the angle is perfect. No distracting shadows or bright spots. Congrats on a great shot. Good luck with the challenge. |

Interesting. Excellent lighting. Focus looks good. Edges are a bit ragged. 7 |

the micrometer is a nice touch. |

Interesting concept here! At a glance this stuff all looks like medical supplies! I was expecting at least one submission to go above and beyond the wood pencil and here it is! Well done! |
