 An iron handle from a drwaer from my living room table. I wanted a photo with simple shapes. Since the submission would end up being rectangled, I thought a circled shadow would offset it some. I'm sure we'll see a lot of desaturated photos for this challenge, so I wanted a pic in color. I don't expect a high finish, but I think I like the way this one turned out.

This gives a lonely feel to it. I find the angle of the shadow a little distracting, but I like the depth of field.

Wonderful textures in the paint - and a great shape and shadow. Seems a bit "shiny" to the left - can't quite describe the effect but I'm not keen on it. Like the overall composition, though would shave a small touch off the left.

Simple yet effective. Like the colors and the composition. I gave it a 7.

The simplicity works well. Maybe crop just a tad more on the left? I want to reach into the pic and pull that handle - what will it open?

very simple and has a lot of character. It reminds me of the stowaway picture in the inside looking out challenge, which I loved. hope you do well!

Love the simplicity. Beautiful. I'd just as soon not have a frame, though - something this simple doesn't need one - it should stay simple. 9

8. Wonderfully simple. I am a fan of borders. I like the transition from focused to less so.

I like this, needs a bit more contrast, but I like this.

Nice composition and use of negative space. Good DOF. 7.

Very nice photo, but I don't really like the border at all, I think it distracts. A thinner white or black one would look better in my opinion.
