Critical comments always welcome! This giant metallic jack comes all the way from Germany and is older than I am.

I can't be critical if I like the perspective. Really nice idea. Love the reflection in the jack.

Great POV for this effect. I enjoy the reflections in the jack, too.

Love it! What was the actual focal length on this? I have the same lens.

I have no critical comments at all. Love the close up and the perspective. The sky looks great and it's cool to see the reflections in the jack. How big is it since you are calling it "gigantic"?

The jack really does look very big...nice wide angle shot!

Sweet shot! I love how you used perspective to make this jack look so huge. The sky sure was perfect for this too as it adds a dramatic sense.

Love that sky and also the drama if this fine shot. Awesome perspective and a great start to this side challenge. I am really looking forward to this series of images from you.

Edited to say, the position of the jack is spot on, and very impressive.

Nice shot! Great perspective with the ultra-wide angle.

I like the composition. Nice sky. The colors on the rock a seem a little dull. The reflection in the jack is a little distracting, not much you can do about it, just have to be careful what it shows in the next 29 days. :)

I see a person who's just conquered a tough climb, feet planted wide, arms and face upraised, shouting "YES! I DID IT!"

Impressive. Wonderful perspective. Perhaps a little level adjustment would make it somewhat brighter.

Great perspective. Looks like the jack is resting after climbing the rock. The sky is really great too!

I love the illusion of a wide angle macro shot this creates by using an oversize jack. The sky is great, and the texture in the rock and the jack is captured perfect. Wish I had a critique for you, but I can't come up with one.

Love the angles and perspective. The reflection in the lower two legs even show the scene behind you!

Nice wideangle perspective. I think this would do very well in a regular voting challenge.
