Good work thinking outside the square! I'm guessing people will be marking you down because of their narrow minded views. The picture itself is a little out of focus, but I'm going to give you and the sailing photos a 10 to make up for the others! Read the forums if you get a chance.
I like the compositon of the photo. Although some of the blurrines helps the photo, I wish more of it were in focus. Had I not read the thread on tacks yesterday, I'd probably not realize that the reins that control a horse - to which this camera strap alludes - are referred to as tack. And I think collectively all the reins in the world are referred to as 'tack' not 'tacks.' But I'm inclined to give as many points for thinking outside the box and presenting an offbeat image as I'd be to deduct for not meeting the challenge.
