COMPOSITION
I think the composition of this could have been made much more interesting by possibly placing it on a solid background, and getting at a very low angle and taking the picture so that the "controls" as well as the main part of the blender was showing. Or, if you had gotten on one end of the "controls" or the other. Being straight on kinda makes it static and flat.

TECHNIQUE
The black and white works well, and though some commented about the darkness, it looks fine on my monitor. The focus is good.

OVERALL EFFECT
I think the lack of perspective or context makes this shot less interesting than it could be. It is a good idea, just needs a little more tweaking to be truly effective, I believe.

Best to you in the future challenges.

I like the idea and I like that you made it b & w but it is a little too dark. It is also isn't straight but I think the problem is it's skewed so just rotating wouldn't help much.

Heh, nice blender. I wish mine had all these features. I like the black and white on this. I'm not sure I like the framing. I would have cut off a tiny bit more from the left hand side to make it more symmetrical :)

Challenge met, focus nice and sharp, lighting is okay, but you've got a sharpie on the top left side of the metal with your light.
