Love the contrast in this B&W conversion. The bright strip of light down the center of the image is very distracting.

A pleasing image that is well executed. I would have liked a different title; however, I can't honestly say I have a better one.

The paper doesn't convey the feeling of anchient stationery like the quill does. Oveall this is very well done and deserves a high score.

An Eye for Stationery

Unique take on the challenge. Focus is where it needs to be and the lighting looks perfect. I would prefer this in B&W but won't penalize you for your personal preference

The shallow depth of field is hurting this image considerably. I like that you carried the Japanese theme into the background of the image; however, a tighter crop to eliminate the basic green-blue areas in the back corners would help the overall composition.

My Station-ery

A nice play on words. The hand needs more light on it to better convey your intent. It would also help if the background didn't have such a strong light source, as it draws my eyes away from the intended focus point of your entry.

I WAS THERE!!

Wow, you chose some tough lighting conditions to shoot under. At first I wondered if a post card was really stationery but since you can write a message on the back it certainly is. I don't think the black and white conversion works with this photo. Maybe more contrast would help but I'm willing to bet that the post card would suffer greatly.

Forgotten And Discarded.........Until Next Semester

The concept is good but the execution would have been better if the school supplies were placed on a desk in the corner. As is, the background is busy and distracts from the main subject.

Our Write'n Paper

Everything about this image says tilted except the rod the coffee pots are hanging on. It looks like things should be sliding off the back of the wagon. The poll in front of the cowboy holding the write'n paper really hurts this image. Since the colors aren't very saturated, this would look better in B&W or sepia.

Envelopes

This could use some different lighting, as it looks a little flat. Maybe moving the light to the other side would help.
