Definately original. I like the creativness in this. The something new is very clear. Good photo, yes. Something I could look at for hours, no. A little bland for my taste. None the less, that does not mean that it's not a good photo. Lighting is great, angle is great and the point is very clear. Congrats and good luck in the challenge.
Excellent photo. Very creative! I like the simplicity yet it's also interesting. Technically I don't see anything I could improve. This photo is one of my two 10's this week. -stephan
Easily my favorite pic of this challenge, I like the concept and arrangement of the matches. I think it could be improved just a tad with better lighting, trying to eliminate those shadows. Plus, it seems jusy a bit out of focus. But all in all, a great photo. 10 md
cool idea. nice white background. the only thing i'm not 100% sold on (and i'm also not sure how to change that) is that all the matches are leading my eyes to the middle of the shot ... and there's nothing there for the eye to focus on. -- gr8photos (7)
Good contrast, the pattern of the matches works really well to lead you to the new one. Simplicity is sometimes the best way to go. Maybe if the blackened ones were a little more focused? They look weird for some reason.
I think this idea is fabulous and the colours, crispness and contrast are fantastic. I don't like the layout of the matches but that's probably a personal preference. 7, Kavey
