    Wow, pretty impressive Arne. I love the sharpness! The composition is also great. Seems futuristic, contemporary. My only objection is the background being that bright red, which overwhelms the more subtle colors of the slinky. It is also too close to the red part of the (slinky) subject.

    Also, there is a rule in graphics and color theory that the background needs to be darker than the subject. This rule can be and is successfully broken on occasion - think black text on white background - but usually, to make your subject pop you really need to make it darker.

    Very cool. The only thing I would try, more as an experiment than anything else, would be to darken the lower right corner.

    But awesome as is. You, sir, are one creative individual.
