While walking thru a local park on a very overcast day, I spoted this green steel structure. The blue lock wasn't noticed until after I looked at the downloaded photos.

So you couldn't make the lock purple? (A simple trick with Photoshop). Just an idea, then all the photo would be secondary colors. I still like the photo.
An interesting subject, but a somewhat plain shot. Shooting this from several different angles, from low down, from the side, closer in, etc would likely have provided a more eye grabbing shot than the straight-on, centered composition. Personally I would have made a bee-line for the lock and switched to macro mode.
Technically well done, but doesn't really grab the attention of the viewer.
One of the most interesting shots in this weeks challenge. Focus does seem a tad off, and I a little unsure about the composition. maybe rotated to a verticle orientation would be better? Not sure... Also, If you could have shifted the blue to orange, it might have both made more of an impact, and hit hit the challenge even more swuarely on the nose. Still though, this is a very nice photo, and I very much like it. Well done. 8 md
