Wow, great attention to realistic textures and lighting, and the dramatic camera angle and use of DOF really make this image stand out.

Good modeling. Focal blur looks nice.

  Beautiful use of depth-of-field and focal blur in this image. Excellent detail and texturing too, and the composition is visually fascinating. The concept of musical instruments, unfortunately, was a bit overused in this competition (there is so much more to music than instruments), but overall, this is a wonderful image. I would love to chat with you about how you textured the wood.

Very abstract, I love the detail, al the way down to the flecks. Beatiful.
Notable for modelling, composition
