hollowpoint bullets... right?
Very nice picture though :) |

Nice job positioning the pistol at an unusual angle. I'll try to avoid those extra-lethal bullets. |

Excellent rendering with an explicitly commercial feel to it.
Minor but critical defects:
The near-centered target (background) skews the composition by thirds (foreground).
The far edge of the glass shelf (foreground) suffers from a anti-clockwise tilt, neither strong enough to add a dynamic nor imperceptible enough to be ignored.
A little more (reflective shelf) space in front of the gun may make for a more pleasing whole.
Because of the strong mercantile presentation, particularly when associated with a gun, I cannot rate this shot as well as I might have without these obvious aspects.

I would have love to seen this with just a black background. Awesome job on the gun and amo. Very cool...the target in the back blows it for me. Great concept!
I'd recommend a little more foreground, so we can see the top of the bullets reflect, and a solid well lite background. This is a really good photo minus that target. |

Well taken photo. I think it needs a litle room at the bottom of the frame. Its just a little too crowded. Good idea and well shot. |

Great work at keeping lighting glares to a minimum. |

is that an airsoft gun? (red tip) Great composition, technically sound. I like the border too. |

Nicely done. Looks like you might be low and to the left. What is red color inside the barrel? |

Nice setup of the gun and amo. frame and target bit destracting. |

Great rendering of the metallic textures - both shiny and dulled, and I like the reflective surface. I find the out-of-focus target in the background disturbing. |

Good capture of the pistol and bullets - target in the background is a nice touch. Pistol looks like an early 1980's AMT Hardballer - I'm sure adjustable rear sights, higher profile front sight and adjustable trigger would up your score :) That, and those light weight Hydra-Shock bullets will jam if you don't convert to a lighter after market recoil spring. |

Not crazy for the white line. but I think the shot is done well, good composition. |

Great shot (no pun intended). I like the way the target is blurred in the background. |

sorry, but i have to disagree. these do not go together at all. |

well done, like the dof on the target. |

With all of the reflecting potential of the metal surfaces, this image is exposed beautifully |
