Dude - don't you know you can get these new, computer driven cutting machines that make these perfect little paper snowflakes?? ...oh wait, yeah ok I get it. Good job! ;-)

Very nice use of black, white, grey without desaturation. All elements seem in focus except top left corner which seems natural in this composition. Just the right amount ouf saturation in the shadows to make the paper stand out. Great concept and interesting subject matter.

Low tech and always very handy. Nicely exposed, and adequately sharpened.

I love the white-on-white contrasting with the scissors - well done

I think this would have looked a lot better if the snowflakes were on a non-white surface. maybe red?

A good use of light in a hard to photograph picture

I think the white paper blends in too much with the b/g

I see a haze on this pic - try USM 30%, 60, 0 and see what you think.

Too much white. The snowflakes lose all their impact because you can't see them.
