Greetings from the Critique Club...
My critiques consist of commentary on specific elements of photographs that I look for in other images, as well as my own. All of these items will not apply to every photograph, and I will indicate that if it applies to yours.
Your Score
I think that 5.2 may be about right for this photo. I gave it a 4 when I voted
Meeting the Challenge
The photo meets the challenge. I don't believe the subject choice lends itself well to the challenge theme though.
Subject Choice
The subject choice here doesn't inspire me much. It doesn't have any artistic value to me.
Emotive value / Emotional Impact
Zero.
Composition
The composition seems fine. The curve/lead in element of the string is actually nice.
Technicals
Lighting a reflective surface is difficult. You need a rather large diffused light source to eliminated the hot spots you have in this photo.
Creativity
I wouldn't rate this very high on a creativity scale.
Additional Notes
Doing well in a challenge goes way beyond just meeting the challenge. You need to produce images that have some level of emotive value and creativity to go along with the challenge topic.
