I really like the diagonals in the composition - something I am trying to use more of. I like the setup, but wonder if there could be a bit more room between the 2 micrometers? Great reflection underneath the tools as well - really very nice.
Composition is excellent, lighting on the tools is spot on, very pleasant well executed shot.
I like it because it`s a good effort, but a shame about the white bits on the BG still good though.
Another nice B&W shot of proper engineering tools
Lovely mono works very well
Tools do look good in b/w don't they, and you have caught some reflection too.
I like that, a good composition with a hint of reflection.
Nice composition and lighting. Like the subtle reflections too.
Hi Pete,
Great start to your 2020 52 project.
Local is an interesting shot with the diagonals as others have said. It feels a little dark for me too though.
Your shot for pleasure is lovely. Perfect exposure and I can feel the warmth from here
Tools is another excellent shot. Lovely high contrast that really suits it.
Smashing image Pete!
I love the detail in these fine, precision tools, and it's very nicely processed too, with great lighting!
I can certainly sympathise with you regarding cloning out scratches and dust etc...it's a nightmare isn't it?
I like the very subtle highlights on the background however...gives it some nice depth.
Good composition and sharp. Suits b/w. Great work.
Lovely mono image with a great composition , love the subtle reflections.
Excellent shot - nice contrast. Love the subtle reflection.
Nicely laid out and lit. I like the framing too.
Very nice monochrome image, Pete, and I like the way you have arranged the items on the diagonals. I know how tricky it can be to use a black reflective base so you've done well with that too.
Flipping hell Dave that was quick. f13 what can I say I like odd numbers, want large depth of field.lol I thought the 4x4 was discarded before I scrolled down. A nice shot Pete but f13 ?
Not if you don't like the tasteNote to @Cobra full-fat Red Bull is the only version that should be sold.
