Great idea. I really like the initial impact.

The more I study it, the more the muted or washed out color starts to interfer with my warm fuzzy glow. A little tweak with curves would mean all the difference in the world. It brings back the color without oversaturating it.

I like the idea, the crayons in the picture seem a little dull for there being such a "bright" light on them.

Haha, well done. Maybe a bit oversaturated but I like what you did with the reflection on the droplets.

A very creative look at crayons - the image meets the subject matter dead on with subtle, yet detailed effect. A terrific demonstration of the creative process in meeting the challenge in a very unusual way. Should be a sure bet to win a ribbon or place high as a top twenty image. A couple of minor detail problems not worth mentioning because they don't appear until you really get a critical eye and examine the image closely. Well done.

Really neat effect with the light on the drops, not sure if that was added in post or not, but I like it.

cool idea, but the edit hurt it.... you might try bumping up the contrast- it looks like you might have been editing to make the water drops pop, but overlooked the lack of contrast in the rest of the picture and the slight dark halo around each drop. I like the idea.
