 A weird subject, yes. But I saw them sitting there and thought, "what the heck..." I'm interested to see how this shot does. The background had blue in it, so I selected the blue channel for the entire image and slid the hue to more of a yellow tone. Tweaked contrast and levels. Cropped a tiny bit from the bottom of the image. Natural windowlight, tripod.

Hmmm - I know what shade of yellow I think these are supposed to be. Are the buttons supposed to be the same shade? They look green to me. Perhaps brighter lighting would have captured the color more accurately?

definatly abstract. definately screwdriver handles. focus and clarity are really good. I think the angle and framing/cropping is great as well. the way you didn't line the up with each other, kind of tapered them, is a great advantage to the photo. i think that was a great choice. not something i would hang in my livingroom, but still very nicely done. good luck in the challenge.

Good shot that makes a photo out of common objects. The message is not deep, indeed, I don't think there is a message at all, but I like it because you tried something different (it's not a flower!).

They look like a lot of green in them.
