Not very suitable for this competition, but, my friend, this is a great image, a very fine one and am really impressed. You are the next Man Ray, my dear pal, you have it in you to be a great photographer...

the shot is good...the lighting looks really flat...perhaps some editing with levels and contrast would have made this really pop
