I am new to photography and this was my first entry to DPchallenge and also my first photo where I had to consider a lighting setup. It was vey basic; 2 500 watt halogens, two mirrors and my 420ex flash. I appreciate the comments as they will certainly help me out in future submissions.

This is really great, if only the old nail didn't blur out so soon. It gives a good image and I think you captured the old/new thing well. It gives a sense of the time difference making them stand apart, even though they're all together. good job!
Nice idea. I think a desat on everything except main screw and then bump the contrast to give them a super industrial feel wold have made for a really cool pic.
Great idea! The highlights on the new screws are a little glaring & makes it difficult for me to want to look for very long, but it surely emphasises the new vs. the old!
