Composition/Content Good imagination in viewing the farthest handcuff through the near one. Nice and simple image makes it interesting. Both the angle and the perspective combine in a unique way to present this image. Solid white background was a good choice.
Lighting Good lighting and contrast.
Camera Work/Technical Great use of DOF for effect. Good exposure.
My Opinion I like your imagination and expression in this image. I would like to have seen slightly less angle. I also wonder what the image would look like if both handcuffs were in focus. Very nice job.

This is a very, very cool photo. Handcuffs? I guess you took the angle of fooling us with a perspective trick (seeing one handcuff through the other) rather than the "dramatic" interpretation. The shallow DOF is used beautifully here, and the composition is great. 10 from me.

Are these handcuffs? (maybe an older design?) Interesting how you focused on the far "cuff" and not on the nearer one (that's kinda nice/different). Framing - works well enough, lined up basically on the 1/3 line. Color - well, there's not alot to work with there (no score affect). Interest moderate to good. Score upgrade from 7 to 8. Swash

Difficult to make some sense of what is where in this photo, although very creatively done.

Neat use of DOF here. I wonder how it's being received. I have not had much luck with non-standard DOF use. Nice shot!

this is a very interesting use of perspective.. i really like the depth of field bringing the rear part of the handcuffs into focus.. that is very unique :) great shot! - setzler
