I can't give this image much more than a 5, because to be honest there's nothing terribly special about it. The photo is of decent quality, but that's as far as it goes.

To me, this is the equivalent of a thought as expressed via text message. Fragments not worth the full "OMG, no way?"

I'm curious how you broke the penny.

Crop is good, lighting is good, concept is good. Formally a bit plain/not exciting. Ol' Abe seems to be leaning backwards slightly, which is making the OCD in me twitch a little bit. Overall a 6 from me.

Neat photo (somewhat out of focus) but not really a dissasembled object. It's a broken object and that's not the same.
