"The belt" is fit into the 80's challenge in my opinion, I am wondering if many voters were not hip in the 80's and don't remeber the belts, or possibly not old enough to remember.
This photograph is a very interesting piece. I really like that you did choose black and white, it really give the viewer that metallic feel. Great use of lighting to enhance the belts features. Also a very interesting use of focus, I think a lot of people would have just have used the buckle as the focus not behind it. The composition of "The belt" just prefect for me, the image is just tight enough. I think the border was nice on this piece to enhance the metal as well and bring the image in even more. There are a few minor spot that are showing up in the image, but nothing distracting enough to take away from the subject. Good work! |

Great image! I love the tones, the metallic nature is captured wonderfully and the whole image shimmers. THe lighting is great to me, a few minor hot spots but nothing overwhelmingly bad. The focus is good, but I do find the bit that's out of focus on the left a tad distracting, especially when the rest of the image is in such good focus. I don't know whether people understand the connection to the 80's so I hope you aren't suffering from DNMC comments. I think its great. Nicely rendered! I gave a 7. |

I'm guessing this is the belt you wore during the 80's? |

the fact that the 2 prongs aren't parallel to the rest of the buckle is very eye catching. |

I have a belt like this one in my house! It's not mine mind you but it's here, LOL! I like the idea, the simplicity of the shot and the lines in the way they lead you around the shot. Very nice indeed. An 8 |
