I take this kind of photo a lot - love the regular pattern. Great exposure and composition. Broken up slightly by the iregularities in the black pattern - my original reason for not voting higher. Plus "x" was a slightly obvious character given the nature of cross bracing. i like the overall effect, however.

Thanks for all the votes above 5..I'm glad some people liked this; it was geometric and unusual so I figured it might be in trouble! Three of you gave me 10 and two a 9..thank you !!!

Nice detail, the DOF should be shallower IMO. 7.

The wood on black certainly reinforces the "X" theme.

Justa bit dull subject matter, would you hang this on your wall at home?

hmm now thats alot of X's. It is a pretty bland shot until you notixe the layers of X's. Nice job lining up the rear X's with the front ones.
