I think a deeper depth of field might be better.

Very creepy. The harshness of the flash actually adds to that atmosphere by projecting the shadows.

The figures are a bit naff. But i like the tools hanging on the left - perhaps a photo of those would be better.

Good idea. Definitely gives the impression of a professional.

Couple of points about the photo:
> Distraction in the top right
> Framing of the photo - cropped heel.
> Graininess... it's ok but makes the photo look a little soft. Perhaps more sharpness would improve the image.

Not a very inspiring or interesting photo I'm afraid. The plastic is not very aesthetically pleasing - a nice metallic texture would be nicer.

The reflection is pretty good.

The bokeh doesn't work so well for me in this one. The drill doesn't take up enough of the frame.

If it is a dentists drill it might have worked well if you had someone in the LHS of the frame slighly out of focus to build the picture.

Decent idea but the execution doesn't match it.

You've got lots of different elements (tools as it were) and I like the selective focus to try to emphasise just a couple of them.

However the perspective is a little awkward.

Deadspace in the middle of the photo makes it unclear what I should be looking at.
Out of focus needle and thread is distracting.
Over saturation of reds is evident in the table making it blotchy.
Lighting looks like it's come from a the camera's flash. Try using a torch to get more interesting lighting on the subjects.

It does meet the challenge.

Looks like a very low resolution shot.

Really underexposed on the cake.

Awkward perspective - it's not directly above and it makes the photo look flat.

Awkward crop of the plate and cake.

The idea has potential. I think the gooey filling of the cake would make for an excellent shot if taken from a lower angle and closer in. Some directed lighting would help.

Tools indeed...which ones do you use?

Awesome idea. The models are great. Just lacking in the execution.
