Greetings from the Critique Club!

Firstly HÃ¥kon congratulations on your 2nd highest scoring image (so far!) :o)

Composition:

First impression, I thought I was looking at some kind of jewellrey with dark beads on it!! I really like the placement of the wire in the frame and the drops of water add an extra something to the image :o) I find the light lines on the background work well with the dark lines of the wire and the slight angle across the frame is nice.

Technicals:

The image has an overall softness that I find a little distracting, I'd like to have seen the wire much sharper. I do think the noise actually adds to this shot and the detail is good :o)

If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.

- Natalya :o)
