This is a toy gun that was used as a prop for a short student film. I put the camera on the tripod, aimed at the sky and then held the gun up next to the camera.

Nice perspective, would've liked it more if the gun wasn't so blurry. (Kind of violent)

The topic is certainly met here. Your use of DOF keeps the sight in focus and everything else slightly out of focus, which is also superb. The composition isn't all that interesting, but, it's interesting enough. Even will all of this, I feel like it's missing *something* that would make it jump out at me.

Very good capture and perspective--the sky background truly enhances this image.

I wish more of the front of the barrel was in focus...like from the sight to the tip of the barrel might have been better. Hard to say. Good idea and the perspective definitely adds drama.
