Comment by Konador:
Very nice DOF here, and the white background makes it very useable in stock photography.

Nice color and clarity on the lens. It feels like it should be a portrait shot though.

This is a well composed photo and the unusual cropping actually enhances it in my opinion. I had to think about it for a while to get the relevance to the "despair" challenge, but I got it in the end from your title, the nails and the cross image. Good luck on this one and I hope everyone else will understand it.

Excellent shot, I wish you hadn't cropped off the spike on the left side though.

Very crisp, and what an incredible object! I could easily see this alongside text in a book or in a newspaper article. Awesome!

I think i'd like to see the end of the nail to the left. Otherwise, I like the cropping/framing/ the negative space to the right is good, and I like the closeness of the vertical crop. the focus and clarity are good. color and lighting appear to be ok as well. i guess my only minor complaint is the crop to the left. overall a nice shot. good luck in the challenge.

One of the relatively few shots in this challenge I could really picture being in a stock photography catalog! Very nicely done -- the sharpness at the front of the camera is perfect.
