I like the black and white, the composition, but somehow I think I should be seeing an older lock on this door, and the image seems slightly out of focus.
crisp.. clear.. contrast.. angles.. shadows.. composition.. this photo contains all of the elements that I think make up a good black and white... excellent shot :) = 9 - jmsetzler
VERY Cool photo - WHAT talent - Love it - the angle, the texture(of course that's next week), the silver, shadows - all of it - Excellent work. Ruthann
If you would have had the lock just a slight bit to the left, so it is a little more off center I think it would have looked better. But nice just the same.
I like this one a lot( a bullet hole through the lock would have been neat.)( hard to do though.)Nice lighting,focus and real good use of angle of view!!!
I love B&W and this is a perfect example of why I love it. The textures and the lights and darks of this photo are great. I love the angle and cropping...perfect to me all the way around. KDJohnson - 10
I thought the subject matter was rather boring, but technically, this, to me, looks like a perfect photo... and after staring at it for a few minuites.... There's something about it that keeps my eye interested. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I ended up changing my vote.
this is such an excellent shot. I love the way it tells a story. also great lighting and contrast, not to mention good composition. I like all the diagonal lines. Reminds me of "forceps" from the fear challenge.
Too much to the right and too dark on the left. I would have enjoyed this image more had it been vertically oriented with most of the right side cropped out.
