Control Dial ■ Uninteresting poor composition

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Started 23 Jan 2010

It would appear that most viewers actually like my rejected images, I will therefore put a few more 'Bad' ones on.

Starting Saturday a series of new Still-life images.

But I rather like that colour combination - it remindes me about my dress, what I had in the childhood :)
Thank you for your comment on my site, I took the photo by my new zoom lens ( 150 - 500 Sigma )
Have a nice day, Michael!

Nice little handle though. It's asking to be turned

Nice color & details... interesting to see this control dial in a very different light.

I don't find it to be an uninteresting composition at all. I like the circle opposed to the diagonal lines which are really differently-seen angles of other circles. It's nice.

Foto-aksent from Binkom, Belgium

I like this still. Good post processing!

don from spokane, United States

I like the detail of the controller and am wondering what it controls. Nice color in the image.

@don: Looks like there is a V belt on the side, so maybe it regulates the speed ?

Nigel from Avening, United Kingdom

Colour is good. Poses the question what is it used for ?

26 Jan 2010 5:22pm

@Nigel: Probably a kind of speed control ?

Earnest from Oklahoma, United States

You are your own worst critic... I think it's fascinating --- strange to see a crank arm on that.

26 Jan 2010 6:48pm

@Earnest: Thanks Earnest, I think it was a kind of reduction gear, there is a V-belt running along side.

Jasp from Plymouth, United Kingdom

I like it... colours and lights are catching.

Chris from South Jersey, United States

I agree that the composition isn't very "striking", but I do like the colors......maybe the belt at left at more of a diagonal angle......

MadScientist from Düsseldorf, Germany

The colours and the analogue touch make this a good photo, no reason for hiding it!

sherri from Little Rock, Arkansas, United States

I really like the deep blue in this. My kind of macro....I think I said that one other time:-)

@sherri: Thnx Sherri.

'Uninteresting bad composition'...... I'm so glad you're not as critical with my images, Michael ha ha
I rather like the composition here myself, and the interest factor is high. Nicely seen and I'm glad you posted rather than deleted.

Will from Tokyo, Japan

Really nice still life, I like the DOF and the classic colours on the outer casing.

Twelvebit from Victoria, United States

I don't see the poor composition.
