Candle light and light from fireplace used. Copper wire from a transformer was wrapped around a larger piece of wire to form the spiral and then stuck into some play-doh to keep it in place where I wanted it.

There's a lot of negative space here that just isn't adding anything. Don't be afraid to fill the frame with your subject.

Certainly is copper, but maybe the picture would have been a little more interesting at a different angle, such as from above at an angle with shallow DOF

Good job handling the reflections on the copper

Not a very attractive image to me. But then again; what can you possibly get out of some copper wires

Very pretty. Love the brown/rusty brown background to highlight the copper sculpture.

background does not compliment the foreground

this doesnt seem to be going anywhere. maybe if you could see the base of the copper spirals it would feel more whole. it just seems a bit lost

Nice...focus seems a little soft, it may be a depth of field issue, if the background was more uniform it would have helped.

I think you could have done a little more with this subject (bending, shaping, lighting, etc...)

Looks almost floral.... very pretty.
