Probably the best an allen wrench has ever been presented. Poor little thing lives a very uncelebrated life, I suspect, but they come in handy when you need one. And, of course, you can never find the darn things when you need them. Probably because they're in birdbaths the world over... who knew?

I like the background and colors. Can't get too excited about the subject, but the image is nice. Is that one of the lamest comments ever??? :/ But I do like it as an abstract.

I think it's the best f..ing title ever ;-)) "Stuck an allen wrench in a birdbath and took pictures of it. I still don't know why". LMAO!! Sorry, but every time I read that I go into fits of laughter (hope you don't mind ;-)))))

Well I did not think this was a sub-5 image. Maybe the background wasn't manly enough? I love the background tho because of all the pretty colors :)

I like your title, but the background and the product clash a bit for me. Not sure if this was the intended look.

Lol. Odd choice of subject, and humourous title. Still it is neatly taken, and I like the grainy textures and bold shapes.

I love the ingenuity. The background is a bit detracting

Very plain photograph that lacks the necessary interest to make this a successful product photograph.

The subject isn't really grabbing me, that background is pretty good though.
