This was well shot but the reason it probably didn't do so well is because I think a lot of people feel that the picture of the computer keyboard has been done so many times , esp since most early digital camera aficionados were comptuer users and one thing you always shoot when you're bored is your keyboard :) ..

That said, I like the tilted angle. The clarity and exposure are good. If I was going to do a keyboard shot, I would try to make it a bit different. Maybe some colored light at an angle and take advantage of the reflectivity of the plastic to get some interesting highlights. Just a thought ..

Wow, the angle really through me off for quite a while. It makes the letters look like they are on the side of the keys. I really like this illusion. You got me. The focus is a little soft, but what the heck I'm still intrigued by the angle. I still have to look for a minute to see the letters correctly. Worth a 10 all day long. Great one.

so tiny... the diagonal composition and choice of B/W work here, but the dark tones could use some reinforcement and a more interesting light source than onboard flash is in order.

I like this picture. The keys are very clear and the lighting is also good. Good job.

Please don't take pics of your keyboards. :( It's horrible, no offense but there has to be something more interesting having to do with squares! 3.
