Greetings from the Critique Club!

*muttering to self* aw damn another HM...Oops! Hi there Janine! ;-)

Very difficult to find flaws with an image like this. Lovely b/w rendering of the innards of an old pocketwatch, and it works beautifully. Great lighting, dead-simple comp and it all works beautifully. ISO seems a little high, but you did use a pretty small aperture and for a stationary macro, an exposure that's not excessively long or short.

Otherwise can't find any nits to pick here! Which is a good thing :-)

Belated congrats on the HM and keep up the good work

Susan

Sharp capture; great detail; interesting subject. I also like the use of negative space on the right side. If I had to criticise I would have liked the text to be the other way up, but if this is how it's stamped on the watch then there wasn't really anything you could do about that. My favourite.
