I like the lighting and DOF on this one

like the DOF and lighting -- well done

Lovely idea, but you might want to crop it a little so the hammer and anvil is larger in the photo, and straighten it at the same time.

Thanks for your advice ! I've straighten the picture and croped a little (I want to keep the grindstone in the backgroud that permit the eye not to quit the picture due to its round aspect)

That is much better and I do agree with keeping the grind stone

Very nice shot! The B&W works well and the DOF is just right

Love it

I think this should have win first. I love this shot.

Nice work, a little more light in the shadows and it would have been perfect.

Nice composition, i really like it.

I lightened the mouth of the ink bottle so you can see more of the detail, and that you both for the compliments!

definitely better.
