 I took a shot of a bunch of colored pencils, and then desaturated. My goal is to show that even in black and white, color can still make a slight difference. I am not sure how this will do. It depends on if voters accept this concept, which is indeed counterintuitive.

Good take on the challenge. Unfortunately, the black and white doesn't highlight the colors very well, but the pattern is interesting 5

Lovely the rainbow of colors your portrayed here. Specs on the paper a bit distracting

Maybe the title answers my question, but looking at this makes me want to see the shot from more directly the pencils.

This is a neat idea, but I have seen far, far, far too many colored pencils, crayons, and markers in these challenges to give this one a decent score. It's not a bad picture, its just not interesting anymore.

Great idea, I like the thought and creativity here. The perspective also makes this interesting. 7.
