I like the idea, but execution could have been slightly better. The left tap if shown would have been better. Also I can feel something wrong with the way the hand towel is folded. Some other way (I'm not getting which way, maybe we should experiment) I guess this would make a terrific shot.
ACW=All Comments Welcome? Well, thats what I am taking it as. My apologies if it really means "Apples can't walk" or "Always channels water" :-P
I love this photo as a thumb! In fact it was one of the photos I was most interested in viewing when looking through all of the thumbs. Up close, I like the focus in the "cold" handle and in the towel, but am missing some focus in the nozzle. That kind of detracts for me.
I like the tonal range of your black white image. A nice mix of all shades, which is really important in my opinion.
This is a good photo. Very nice black and white conversion with deep blacks. The shine of the stainless steel looks real good too. Nice centered composition with a square crop omits any unecessary context and clutter creating a clean image. Only thing to give any negatives about is the rather ordinary subject matter... But the quality of the photo offsets that good enough to give an abaove average vote in my opinion.
