I think I like 5 the best. You have some very cool old coins and old watches are always cool.

Interesting and I think well done and visually appealing. I think I like 3 & 5 best but I think you can work this in a lot of ways.

:) Thanks.... Whenever I do still life I throw in one item that is a bit out of place for interest....

I don't think I am qualified to say anything but I like them all. The B&W ones catch my eye the most. You did a great job.

Qualified? If you have eyes and an opinion you are qualified.... I like critique from anyone.. You don't have to be a Professional Photographer to like a photo, just like art...
And thank you.... :)
By the way, I just looked at some of your photos... You are qualified my Friend... :)

OK, after taking a second look , I really like #6, there is just something about the arrangement and colors that reminds me of the old drawer my father had, where he stored all his old coins, keys and odds and ends.
Thank you for the complement.

Hey Randy, nice to see still life photos here. I also like still life photography. It's a great pastime for the winter season.
I like number four the best. For me it's the only one that gives the subject a little breathing room. I also think that the muted color of the old envelope provides a little contrast to the metallic objects in that photo. In the black and white photos the background has the same cast and so it doesn't provide any contrast. I think I would like to have seen a shot from a lower angle too, just to see the subject differently. Good shots bud,
Dave
