That is what a lot of this high tech stuff needs...a hammer! Bumping up.

good lighting and nice white background. Im sorry but I dont like the subject ....... the parts are placed too neatly, if you had just smashed it the screws etc wouldnt have been neatly taken out. Nice idea and photo well taken though.

Hmmm, I'd work on the grip on the hammer. ;) Jokes aside, I think a longer exposure where you see the hammer coming down would look very cool. 6

That is just too funny, tell me this is an optical illusion???? On the other hand it probably isn't as I've felt that way MANY MANY times but then I realize it really isn't the poor camera's fault. I like this a lot, the stark white background. Nice crisp image.

I would like to have seen some motion on the hammer, I think it is a little static without. Nicely composed and pin sharp. 6

Sacrilege! A very clean, static shot. I think I'd have liked to see some motion in the hammer. Otherwise a good effort. 8
