I really liked this one. It is orginal, creative and abstract. Very daring..I must say! Congrats to you! Your score should have been higher IMO, but not everyone likes abstract, and that too bad. But I do!! I love the high contrast and how there is a hint of blue here and there. It would have been so cool if you would have had a sunset or just the colors of a sunset in the fork! Wouldn't that have been neat? I think that the diagonal compostion is fab! The only thing that I would have liked to have seen was more of the fork teeth. Great job...and good luck in future challenges.

Nice abstract macro, although nothing here that makes me go wow!

Love the graphic-art purity of the image, but not fond of the 2D look

Wonderful composition for a very modern artistic looking photo.

this is very cool, but I think it's just blown out a little too much.Great idea though

good strong graphic elements. I like what you were going for here, but I think the lighting is too strong. It would have been more effective to have some slight reflections on the broad flat surfaces of the handle and tines, but I do like the subtle gradients that are showing.
