Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi agwright...

I think the color in this photo is excellent.. Whatever modifications you made to get that combination worked nicely :) I also like your compositional choice... the strong diagonal always works for me and it gives this photo a nice abstract quality. I normally don't care for heavy color modifications, but this one works :)

The shallow depth of field works very well here also... It forces the attention to the blades... I really don't have a very strong 'critique' for you because I can't offer any suggestions to improve what you have done here, and I like your resulting photo :)

Keep up the good work :)

I think I might have liked this better without the radical chroma shift. Neat idea, though.

good colors, good lighting? good focus? I don't know, I think it's too close for me to say. It all looks out of focus to me.

Clever title. I like the crop of this one, and the combo of the purple, blue and white.

I like the color. I'm still trying to decide about the angle and balance. Good job.

Amazing color - cool crop and good use of lighting. I like the white space on both sides.

The colours and clarity grabbed me on this shot. I really like the composition, clarity, colours (of course) and dof. A well thought through macro shot which deserves a high mark. Excellent work and GL in this weeks challenge.

Hmmm. This caught my eye because of the lighting used here. I think blacklight? Maybe not, but whatever it is works very well. Great sharpness and the bold diagonal lines of the razor add a lot.

Cool idea, but the colours look significantly out of whack. (5)

Can't decide whether I love or loathe this shot. Excellent composition, but the colouration is bothering me. 5 for now ...

Hmmm. Nice idea. For some reason, it doesn't really work for me. Perhaps it's the crop, perhaps it's the colour. Not sure. Would be interested to see more shots on the same theme.
