Critique Club Review:

Oh, very nice! Very bold and powerful.

Focus, depth of field, exposure, lighting, brightness and contrast are all excellent!

You've taken a piece of chain, lying on the ground, and made art.

I particularly like the texture of the piece and the way the chain takes the eye on a journey through the picture. You can alomst feel the cold hardness of the chain, and the roughness of the rock, just sitting here.

I could easily see this hanging in a gallery.

So why didn't you do better in the voting? Borders are a gamble here, but this on might benefit from one. Other than that, I honestly have no idea. Your picture must have been near the back of the list, as the highest ranked photos had more views and total votes. I think that some get fatigued as they go through and not as selective when they vote later in the session.

The chain doesn't stand out enough from the background. Composition is good.
