I like this one better than the original one.
Techo's one was better regarding symmetry, but to me the DOF and contrast are better in your one. |

Very good attempt...I bet getting the pages "just right" was a nightmare! |

Very good attempt...but watch the focal length/aperture to keep some definition in the pen. |

Wow, great job in emulating the original. Tis a great rendition but it could be spectacular if just a few things were done. First, I think it would increase visual impact if you increase the DOF in the shot. It would show more details along the length of this pen. As it stands now the only portion in sharp detail is the point of the pen. If you notice the photo info on Techo's version he used an aperture of 8 and a low shutter speed of 1/15. By doing so, he increased his Depth of Field so that not only the foreground is in sharp detail but the background is too. Next I think that spreading the pages out more so they are not clumped in bunches adds more clean lines to the photo that will make it more visually appealing. |

I like these shots for the clean crisp symmetry, and strong contrast. Nicely done. |

Good rendition of Techo's shot. good lighting, good b/w conversion. Your POV is slightly lower, overall it seems you didn't put as much effort in the shot, the spreading of pages is less elegant and symmetric, your DOF is too shallow, the tip of the pen hasn't got the graphic quality Techo's has. |

Nice try -- very close. The light/contrast on the original was softer and more pleasing, and the pen was more visible. Still this is an interesting image. |

I was going to try this one, but never got around to it. Glad I didn't, as you would have completely embarrassed me.
Very nicely done. |
