Beaten, Battered, And Broken 3
Another from my life as a blue collar worker. This time I'm focusing on the tools and the small things that make what we do possible. As there are many thousands of tools in the trade, its hard to narrow it down to my usual 3 submissions, so this will be a good 6-9 part series. Last one for this first set is of a simple tool that even your average everyday white collar business man probably has laid his hand on once or twice, a wrench. Enjoy  Comments
 Again, very good light!

You actually changed that in a second with this gorgeous shot!
I guess the cared for aspect of the composition (the cloth is perfectly clean, the wrench is shiny) reflects love and pride for what you do. And I am sure you love your work (I have read nothing about you yet, just something about blue collar and I don't know what it is, so these are my unpoluted perceptions!).
The combination of shines and sparkling effects (on the fabric, on the tool and on the working table) as well as the different textures are fascinating. I found harmony in the table matching a small section of the tool, some kind of beautiful balance.
And the colors match so well that I can hardly believe what you achieved here. Even the angle of the tool is interesting, allowing to read USA on it while the lower side of it blurrs until it dissapears on the lower frame of the photo.
Very original to me, haven't seen anything like this on DA so far. And what's more, it makes me want to check more of your gallery and read more about you and your work. Already wondering what blue collar is !!
I hope you get more critiques on this work. My knowledge of photography is basic, so no tips to give, you are better than me !
Deep congratulations for making beauty out of daily objects !
