 I'd love to reshoot this without the piece of tape, but my daugter crumpled up my rings, and I need to make dinner. AT least it will give everyone something to comment on.

This is a good idea! I'm not sure in the white background, but can't think of what would look better;)
Nicely done!

I really like the idea here..... but I think it's important to hide the tape on each ring. The green ring clearly has the tape showing, and that takes away from the shot. Great idea though.

Yes, paper, and very colorful paper at that, but not stationery.

Great idea...The visible tape is a killer though. A little bit more uniformity in the shapes would do wonders I think. I would also crop so if anything, the bottom was cut off but not the top. The lighting and the colors are very good - very striking.

Nice colors and lighting. I would have turned the green ring so the tape wasn't visible.

good idea, tape on the green cylinder is distracting.

Great colors! The tape on the green in the middle is a little distracting ~ but over all a great shot!!

Not quite a rainbow, as the colors are random instead of continous. The green paper in the center should have been rotated so the tape doesn't become the center point of the image or better yet, so it doesn't show at all.

Edit for Typo's

Great idea, but I would have moved the tape on the green center ring to the back - I'm sure I'm not the first to mention that. :-)

better if the front one had the tape side hidden.

The tape on the green circle really is distracting. That needed to be turned away from the camera.

Very pretty arrangement.

Great concept, and almost a great shot...the tape doesn't work for me. I didn't even notice the other "imperfections" until the tape made me start looking for them.

Colors are pretty...I wish the green in the center didn't have tape screaming "turn me around"..other than that, nice job

Hide the tape on the green one.

Nice setup and good strong colours

Very colorful! Should have turned the lime green to the side about 30 degrees to conceal the tape.

would have been better if we couldn't see the tape on the green paper...

Shame you didn't turn the centre green one around so the tape wasn't showing. Also, greater care with making the tubes would have made this a better shot. Glue instead of tape also. Contrast and comp is good, and it's a great idea. Shame the overall execution is as good. (5)
