Maybe a different crop would enhance this photo.... I think you have a good idea going.... just a bit lacking the way it is.

Nice photo. I like how up close it is for the box of chalk. Although, It almost seems as though there is supposed to be a pattern with two equal colors next to each other, except for the orange, so it throws me off a bit. I would also have tried cleaning up the orange piece on top a bit.

I think arranging the chalks differently would have been better. My brain wants to find a pattern but it cant.

I like this photo. Color selection is good. However I do find the overhanging shadow on the top row, esp. on the left, distracting. I think it would score stronger without that there. 6.

This shows that creative lighting and set-up can turn ordinary objects into art. Good job. I like the colors
