 This is a photo of the string bridge on my neighbor’s upright bass. The bass is worn but still provides very nice tones. This is my first submission.

Excellent capture of the rich, deep color of the body, and the focus is so sharp you can see the ridges of the strings - this is a very tactile photo; it seems like I could grasp the instrument if I just reach out. Overall, it doesn't wow me - - I can't put my finger on it, exactly, but I get the feeling that I would really, REALLY like this if something were different - probably the crop or angle or something. (sorry)

Very nice, very good color. I might have chosen not to crop so tightly at the bottom.

I can't decide if I like the lighting or not, but the framing and composition are wonderful. Great idea for the challenge.

I'd have liked this better if the light was more even across the surface.

Nice job. I just feel that the lighting could be a little better and the sharpness could be improved.

It's not just a guitar (?) bridge, but it also resembles a suspension bridge. Cool. The composition itself is a bit weak..the color is a bit dull.6

Nice, but doesn't seem quite sharp enough. Light on the strings is a little harsh.
