This is awesome. I think it might bring out a nice feeling if you were to make it a bit warmer. Changing the color temperature might bring out a bit of the beauty in the woods. Nice idea and framing.

I've seen this done before. Either way, I think this could be straighter, and maybe a bit more centered.

Did I see this shot somewhere else already?nice the idea of the sharpener, makes the boring idea of pencils alligned together a little more expressive.
