Thanks for all of the comments. About 12 years ago I did design work for a large estate agent and noticed that they threw away lots of keys. I asked them to put them aside for me, and ended up with a sack of about 500 keys. I thought that they might be useful some day :-)

Love the great idea. At first I thought it was a shot of a cityscape from the highest building then looked at the title and thought this was ingeniuous. Great composition and absolutely excellent shot. "10"

What the...? How bizzare this is (in a good way). It really DOES look like a city if you look at it right. How did you get SO MANY keys!!?? Must be a locksmith or something. :)

really intersting shot. it sure looks like a city. i think it is perhaps too high contrast, orover exposed at the top, otherwise quite interesting.

That is really cool. The lighting needed something to draw out shadows as you would see in an aerial view of a city like New York, Shanghai, or Hong Kong, but, this is is a very unique view of keys.

Great idea, nice shot. I've never seen so many keys together.

Cool concept - it does look like a futuristic set of skyscrapers.

great idea best in the comp!! but the actual image is not as good, shame that it isn't more in focus! 8

haha, great concept.. where did you come about so many keys???
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Focus seems a tiny bit out, but I guess that is inevitable on a shot like this. Otherwise a fantastic, very creative photo. 11 out of 10 for effort! Overall 9

wow... extra time on your hands? "A" for effort certainly....
  Photographer found comment helpful.

oh....what a creative and interesting idea! When the photo was downloading I thought at first it was a city of tall buildings....then I became aware of what it really was....

Very unique and interesting.

Clever stuff indeed - like this very much - your placement of the focal point of those lines is very strong - so many would have tried to put this centrally.

This is SO busy it is hard to look at. My eye keeps wanting to find a place to rest and there is no such place. What is supposed to be your focal point here?
