I'm going somewhere here, but I don't know quite where.

Love the lighting.

As a stand-alone image, I'd crop it. I like the "ghosts" in the background, but they are just not interesting enough to carry the top part of the frame.

The only exception would be if you had a series of these shots with tons of dead space, and the objects constructed a sort of narrative or borrowed from a pre-existing one.
 
i also like it. if it was color it would be ehh but black and white good job buddy
 
Ahhhh, screw it all, amolitor! I mean,who knows where you're headed!
 
So you bought a new cupboard at a DIY store and after putting it together this screw was left over, right?
 
A neutral surface for the screw or one which would support where a screw might be used would have been infinitely better. Too much going on after the lighting and composition to keep my attention. Screwed up on this one, me thinks.
 
I suppose it could be the start of a "fastener" series. I tend to agree with the earlier post about the "ghosts" in the shadows not quite working. I think you may be close to something here but you need to do more with the background.
 
Ohhhhhhhh, a fastener series! As Austin Powers says, "Yeah baby, yeah!!" Imagine the possibilities as amolitor prowls the aisles of Home Depot....nails...galvanized nails...titanium-tipped nails ...roofing nails...oh, just the nails alone makes me feel weak in the knees. Then there are all the staples and such! staples_zinc_diamond_pt.jpg Not to mention all the screws! Both tamper-resistant and standard head types. The whole fastener field seems just ripe for a series of photos!

I think I like your effort here. It would be much better with a stronger subject but the composition sure carries it.
 
Just let's hope it wasn't sitting on a chair... in the "before" image.;)
