Overall, this is a great macro image with excellent focus and lighting. I really enjoy the color on this as well.
What I like: perfect subject -- nice abstract and well-done. The repetitive pattern of the pages is well thought-out and not too rigid. I also like the shallow angle so that you cannot actually read any words on the pages -- the mystery there is nice.
What I don't like: really, there's not much to dislike. The only part that i see that detracts from the image is the section on the lower right where you've actually shot THROUGH the book and can see the lighting and backdrop. It's not that this is bad, but it interrupts the pattern that is the focus of the photo.
Congratulations on a great entry and a very good score.
Great composition - good pattern - intriguing subject - nice colours. Focus on top pages looks a bit blurry and the pink line to the right is distracting. Good treatment for challenge. [7]
Very nice shot, good use of colour. Were you holding the pages still here? It appears that way slightly because of the groups of pages... I think this is good as it seems to add more body to the shot i.e. I think lots of pages fanned out would sacrafice the nice space you have going on, esp towards the lower right of the image. Great job, good luck with it - 8
