Love the border Harvey. It really draws you into the shot. It's a great shot too. Love how you froze the action. While I completely agree with the fact it does fit the challenge I still don't really think "Science" when I see it. While you got a pretty good score I bet this could have gotten a better score in another challenge. Great shot man.

Nice clean image, but the composition feels chopped off. Perhaps an angle that would have the neck disappear into a blur, rather than cropped off?

Here is my personal scoring scale with 2 points each. The idea behind is to justify the score I gave. You have all right not to agree with it. This is just my personal opinion with whatever little photography knowledge I have. Hope it helps.

- Meets the challenge - 2 out of 2
- Lighting/Exposure - 1 out of 2
- Composition - 1 out of 2
- Concept and execution - 1 out of 2
- Over all image, WOW factor - 1 out of 2

I like this. I feel you made a good decision to photograph only part of the guitar, and you've done it well.

It's a shame that some voters (me as well in this and many other cases) doesn't quite get the full extent of the photo until after the voting has ended. This is a great photo. I'm glad I wasn't to harsh on you. Gratulations on making it to your top 5 on your profile ;)

I like the simplicity of this shot, and the theme of "Tools of the Trade" does shine through. I like it ...

Thank you all for the great comments! This is why I'm here.
No shoehorn, it was shot specifically with "displacement" of water as a scientific principal of mechanics in mind.
The line at the back are the tiles at edge of pool.
The shot was taken in the daytime and made to look dark with curves.
The large border was to draw you into the shot.
I saw this challenge as a shot of something scientific happening, not of an object of science.
