 Taken in my garage. I wanted the nut and bolt to be in focus whilst having the lawnmower in the background makes you feel as though you are in the garage.

Should have been better than a 78 with mid 6's, nevermind, next time. Keep up the good work.

nice, simple composition... but the foreground seems to lack any sort of contrast or something that would otherwise distinguish it.

Very poor quality. It´s too grainy, no focus...

leaves the viewer thinking...is this what holds the lawn mower together? Nice..

I like the grainy effect and the DOF you used in this photo. The lawnmower and garage door in the background define the location. Good job!

nice idea, but the execution (focus, centered composition, image quality, etc) is not so great. could use adjustments in levels to sharpen and bring out the blacks. don't think the sepia really works since the image lacks contrast.

Nice, but I would have liked it better if the bolt was a little better focused.

Very nice composition and POV, great DOF and mood created by the sepia treatment. Great shot overall.

its so good...the nut and bolt so neatly placed. The smaller items so vivid and the larger in the background, it just would not have worked the other way around.
