Black and white is the right choice for this. Good that you didn't center this. 8

B/W works well. I like this composition with the jacks, too. Seems to lose focus as it goes back. Still, nice work!

Nice set up, extremely good focus. I sort of question the black and white, but the title explains that pretty well (color just appeals to me more strongly). Constrast levels seem pretty good. Cropping - can't argue with that either. I'm going to raise your score from 7 to 8. It's too well done for a 7 and my bias shouldn't hurt your overall score. Rob the Swash

I love these things. Hard to find around here, though.

Excellent use of b/w to tie the whole theme together.

Nice use of black and white. Good to see someone enter something with the old time candies. Jacks and ball add a lot to the "story" here, too.

I think this is the most original photograph of all. I love your combination of old time goodies. I think the choice of b&w is a big plus too. I give it a nine! It could be just a tiny bit more in focus.

I like this nastaliga but would have liked it better in color, but admit I'm not a fan of B&W"S..Nice job though

The use of B&W, the old-fashioned brand (who doesn't remember Necco?) and the toys work well together. You've achieved the goal of drawing on our memories..
