The technicals: Centered composition and horizon line works in shots with symmetry. I think it works here. The light source is blown, but that is to be expected. The processing is likely where this image failed from the technicals. The keychain portion has become very choppy with significant portions lost in the dark background. It has also become quite pixelated which is a limitation of the 640 pixel canvas.

The feel: Meets the challenge. The title is a bit long. I do like the glow of the car. The keychain, less so.

The game: Shots of trinkets rarely do well on DPC. You have to either really nail them technically or have something very unusual. This likely hurt you a bit in scoring.

Its a striking image but I've got to work to hard to see the key and recognize the keychain. Moreover, I have no idea of how this depicts the effect of electricity on society or the environment

How does this show electricity affecting society or our environment in a negative or positive way?
