Wow this is unique to anything I've seen for photos. I love the imagination you had to capture these sword handles.

Nice shot. Great composition for the contest.

Nice details and angle of shot.

Good job friend.

Fine photography. Interesting historical sword handles in a nice antique-looking wood holder. The way you did the background is really nice too, like a painting for sure.

An interesting photo of all these sword handles! I like the clear view and definition as well as your mixed media changes. A great entry to the contest, best wishes!

That part of a sword ( or a mace,or a Battle Axe ) is actually called a 'Grip' but that's still a nicely-presented and interesting photograph,my friend!

I would say this is the perfect photo for the contest. My grandson does forging and metal work. He would have loved to have been at this event. Lighting and focus is spot on. The tight crop gives us a great look at the detail on the handles. Good luck in the contest.
