That is not a title, it is a text. This is not a photograph, it is a study in precision, power and the triumph of ingenuity. Well made and rightfully centered to designate the exacting craftmanship this shot portrays. The next time you title a piece of art like this; put the technician up on the shelf and bring out the poet. 9.
Ridiculous title, trying to "convince" us this is metal, which goes without saying, but it doesn't affect my score. Nice shot, could be a little more contrast so the dark areas pop, well-composed.
We all know that this is a metal challenge. Excluding the word "metal" would reflect a differant perspective, and strengthen the title. And actually your title is WAY too long. That alone is a turn off.
I like this shot of the radial airplane engine( or is it a rotary engine?) the color is soft, the shot has a nice symmetry which makes it very appealing.
...the light is so exquisite...the contrast is perfect...excellent detail too...am I looking at an airplane prop? I'm not sure but that is what Iit looks like to me...wonderful abstractness indeed...Absolutely one of the best images in the challenge...nicely done.
