| Love this shot for it's excellent focus and excellent DOF! It ain't easy photographing a chain! Also love the colors. This definitely meets the challenge criteria and should get brownies points for being a little different. Great shot. |

Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject.
Composition - quite good, "string" bothers me
Technical Aspects - quite good
Meets Challenge - yes
Visual Impact / Originality - high

| I do really like this, and have therefore marked it high. But the overall tone is a little too dark for me. If you look at the image at a smaller size, all you can see is a brown smear. Whilst the challenge doesn't suggest that the photo works at a smaller size too, it's something I couldn't help but notice. I know this sounds foolish but the texture of the chain reminds me of jerk dried salami type stuff. :) |

| I would like to see the chain angled a bit more. The colors seem dithered/over compensated with levels/brightness? Definately something old.... |

| This is a great photo. I love the detail shown...so simple yet so intricate. It's at the top of my list this week. |

| Excellent subject choice. Cropping to center the chains might help. Perhaps this photo was sharper before JPG reduction? |

| excellent shot... perfect depth of field... my only critiqe on this one is to either try to get closer or use a tighter crop... possibly a diagonal orientation of the chain in the frame would be nice too... good work :) - jmsetzler |

| great shot...like all that rust and it still gives me the feeling of strength. |

| Nice-- these chains look very old! Good way to use DOF to forece the focus on the chains. My only complaints are that white wisp of string, and I would like to this sharpened just a tad. --8-- sohr |

| I'm quite curious as to what's in the background. I think this image could be a little brighter...it seems a little dark and flat on this monitor. But I really really like those rusty links :-) |

| A little bit more contrast would have been a great help! I like the contrasting forms in orientation, sharp and blurred. |

| Nice, I dont think I would of left the twine in it though. |

| It looks like I could reach right out and touch it. If I could, I would have removed the root or whatever is intertwined in the one chain. Your picture does not need it. Nice blurring of the background. In my opinion any way. Autool |

| Now that's an old chain:) A little more focus would have helped. The string also is a bit distracting. Nice idea though. (5) |

Excellent. I like the DOF in this. Great texture (although 2 challenges ago). The coloring/lighting is also very effective - as well as the composition. 9

| I like this photo, but on my monitor, it is somewhat dark, and doesn't have enough contrast for my taste. The chain almost blends into the background. lhall |

| what if the chain ran diagonally? Would the picture have more impact then? (I've been reading again, so now I'm confused by what the "authorities" say.0 |

| this is a great shot..only thing I'd change about it would be to have the background a bit lighter....it would make the links stand out more. I know sometimes you can't pick your background though...:) |
