its difficult for me to critique this image as i am still trying to work out what it is! I was once told that there are two types of people to please when presenting an image. the first group loves an image that keeps them guessing and the second is the type that likes to know what they are looking at! I come into the second group. however on saying that, I love the lighting and love the colours.

Thanks! Its an ash tray shot from above with sunlight from the side and fill-in-flash.

jKay does has a good point, about those two sorts of people. Before I read your own comment, I guessed it was an ash tray... and I was right :) That makes me somebody of jKay's second group.

Anyway, my compliments about how you controlled the light, looks it wasn't an easy job.

Really mysterious object. The writing on the side gave it away for me though. As I'm firmly a group-oner, I would have edited that out, if at all possible.
I love the impossibleness of the object. A metallic triangle, a bear, some dancers, what IS this? And no background to help in any way, superb.

Very nice abstract image. Also nicely graphic, thus holds very strong interest for me.
