The pattern isnt too bad also the way the light hits it accents the grooves.

Difficult to light such a dark subject in a way to make it exciting.

the light reflected on the records looks good, but the one all the way in the back is a little too dominante. reflecting different color light might also have looked cool.

Lovely abstract patterns and texture. The strong specular highlights (which can often be a downside) work great here. Might have been worth reducing the colour saturation though to dampen out the magenta tones or even going full mono

Interesting arrangement of the records, but little depth to the picture.

I love the simplicity, and the way you've added variation in the gels on the lights. Lovely shot.
