 I found this old telephone and took care to not disturb the dust so I could get a pic of what it feels like to be on hold. Taken under flourecent lights. I finally got the exposure and WB rightI think).

I really like this photo. The dust adds interest; I was surprised to see it after the thumbnail. I l ike the lighting; somehow I wish the white background were cleaner, but no big deal; and I'm not even sure it's possible. Nice work.

Nice example of how a title can add context without having to "explain" the subject, which has clearly been "standing on its own" for quite some time.

Very dusty/dirty - wouldn't have looked better cleaned up to look like we were there 1929 not that this came from 1929?

This photo stands nicely on it's own, but does not strongly say "office" to me.

I know this might seem nit picky, but it seems like the surface area on which this dusty antique phone is sitting is awfully clean. Of course, white doesn't really show the dust as well. Very nice subject matter and good placement in the photo.

I like the shot: composition is good, lighting is good, subject matter is decent. The dust is a nice touch except for one thing, petty really, but you wiped some of the dust off, setting up the shot. How could you not? You may have been better off cleaning up the clock altogether. Just my opinion. 6 ( 7 is my highest score given this challenge).

Neat idea but it needed some context background.
