I think your shot is creative, it is a good idea. I would like to see it a tad darker, just curious what it would look like (may not be an improvement). Great work.
Composition is great. I wish the lighting was not so extreme. The tool is dark so it blends in too well with the plant. If the light was dimmer and you were able to bring out the contrast of the plant I think you would have a really nice image.
This is such a nice image. Great idea. Love the dirt lying on the flat surface.
I like this one, nice and simple. Most of the tools entries are quite lifeless, and I like the way you show here that tools can be used to create and nurture life. Great background, apart from the dirt near the bottom of the frame (the specks, not the pile). The photo in general could do with a lot more sharpening. 8
I love this! It's such a pleasing shot with a soft focus and subtle color. Not the best representation of "tools" to my way of thinking but I'd love to have it hanging on my wall
Plain simple, well composed, good lighting, I like the soft haziness to the photo... imaginative, interesting... I actually really like this photo... -10- (first 10 of the challenge for me)
i like your idea here, would be nice if the light hit upon the objects in the shovel to bring out the colors and textures instead of being in the shadow.
