 OK, I apologize to 18th place & below.

This was a just a goofy shot I was playing with and was NOT intended to be entered in the challenge - forgot it was in there, and to my surprise, was on my home page when the challenge started - oops. Oh well, got a few grins & giggles out of it anyway....

I like this a lot, but better focus and making it a bit brighter would help.

Nice! You do have a lot of them! I like the different sizes and the reflection off of them.

I like this, makes me think of "TOMMY" - on the suggestion side - I think that a more studio cleaner lighitng source would be better right now it seems like the reflection of you and that bright stuff in the background is kind of distracting.

really interesting texture!~

So do I! I have a bunch of chrome steel balls and I was going to enter a photo of them in this challenge too. :)

Your shot is very nice. I think a deeper DOF and more light might have made it even better.

Well done, and good luck!

I really like this, it's almost 3 dimensional. But it slightly seems processed. Or something seems just a teensie bit off? I'm not really sure what it is to be honest, but i still love it.
