Very imaginative cropping of the image gives a great impersonation of a deadly shark, Jaws reborn. I like the limited colour pallet and the steel teeth gives the "creature" a deadly smile. The lighting is well controlled. Thank you for submitting a great image to my competition.

The lighting and subtle tones in this image made stand out from the crowd. Almost monochrome with brown pallet. A unexpected subject matter of a cobblers tools. The only distraction from the image is the slightly out of focus of the toe of the shoe last. Great image thanks for entering my competition.

I like the opposing angles of the handle of the and the pick head and the vertical and horizontal lines of the fence . Interesting background of the timber fence and the glimpse of the sky giving the feel of working outside. Great image thanks for entering my competition.

The selective focus on the hammer, saw and nails with out of focus rule in the background gives this image extra depth. The composition is pleasing lots of detail without becoming distracting and a good use of the rule of thirds. The texture of the wood add greatly to the overall effect. Great image and thanks for entering my competition.

There is a great graphic quality to this shot, enhanced by the very shallow depth of field, The reverse nature of the numbers add to the abstract nature. The monochrome colour palette is very pleasing and the centre positioning of the punch set in the frame works so well in this image. Great image thanks for entering my competition.
