Interesting shapes, colors and lighting. The repeated circles - and the cutting of part of the outer one - give the picture a unity that holds interest.
This made me think of the old reel to reel tapes that my grandfather used to send to us when I was little! Excellent cropping, the perfect circle would have hurt this shot for me, though I would have liked to see the complete squares on the top and bottom left. The angle works well also for me, the way it fades away and goes just out of focus works very well and the lighting, the way it almost cuts the reel in half is wonderful. I'm starting this at an 8 but will be back.
Fits the challenge, though I think having the tape itself out would've added to the 'exposure' concept. Lighting looks good but the colors seem a bit flat and the photo didn't hold my interest very well. 5
Good points:nice and sharp, great colors & reflectives, quite interesting
Bad Points:but not interesting enough IMO, would crop a bit more from the left to clean it overall
Score:5
Well done photo... the lighting is creating some interest, but the overall subject choice doesn't particularly interest me. The sharpness also seems to fade off a bit towards the right side of the image. I can't see any particular benefit to not having this entire photo in focus.
