| i like the use of found objects, but only wish the composition were more enticing. the low-key nature and technical parts are great. |

| I obviously do not know much about low key shooting but I like the use of black and white here. I did not get to vote on this during the challenge, but the only thing that I cannot put together is the abacus and the wording on the box? i would have forgone the box and tried a black background to absorb the shadow from the light. Personally, I think your lighting here is excellent! |
