 This is another one of those shots where I just can't decide.. I've had a good run recently (four 6's in a row), so it'd be nice to keep up the tradition by doing reasonably!

I like the shot, although I'd have preferred the focus point the nobbly joint nearer the bottom left thirds cross. I took some more shots, but I'd moved my tripod and I made a mess of getting it back where it was. :-(

I realise the image is a little dark, which I really hope doesn't too badly affect the score. On my properly calibrated monitor it's about bright enough..

Shot with a Sigma 28-70/2.8 EX-DF.

Nice mood in this shot... good lighting and DOF... focus seems just a *little* off on my screen, (assuming the farthest of these bits as the focal point)

This one is one of the best! really love the DOF and the fact that it is B & W makes it so must better. the only think I would change would be the darkness is the background. Everything else is great......10

I like the concept, lighting and composition. Think I'd have cropped it a bit more from top and left.

A really great shoot. Interesting and beatiful composition. But your shallow DOF turn the first piece blured. Try to increase DOF, closing the apperture tu put all in focus.
