Positives:
As a B&W image on gambling taken by a USA photographer that makes this is a 'good' image. It is an expression of USA pop culture.

Technicals:
It looks like a nice B&W image with a full range of tones from pure black(0,0,0) to pure white(255, 255, 255). I could be wrong. The forearm is slightly overexposed. Composition is generally good but not exceptionally well with a centered composition. Other technicals are good.

The Challenge:
This meets the challenge very well for an American audience but not so well for a non-American audience which will affect it's score slightly. Non-American audiences would score it lower.

Suggestions:
Offset the main subject slightly from center positioning is the only way to photographically improve this image. Subject matter and other photographic qualities changes are different issues.

I can sure relate to this one! I really like the lighting on this one, but the aspect ratio seems a bit odd. I like that there's not a bright shining light on the shoes, which could have been an easy mistake to make with that material. Well done.
