as of meeting the challenge you did, there is rythm in the strings.
but.. I think you could have shot this from a different angle to make it more interesting.
I'm not sure what that is that covers a few strings on the right side, I hope it's not dust or dirt ;) if it's not a vital part of the piano you could have cleaned that before the shot.
and the image would benefit from some sharpening to make the strings stand out more, the image is a bit flat.

Great color and excellent pattern. I think that this one needed some curves adjustments to provide some more contrast. Very nice capture.

I think you had the start of something good here. It would have been nice for the focus to be sharp on the wires. I have no clue what the inside of a piano looks like, but I think that if the shot was pulled back some maybe there would have been more "stuff" to draw in interest. Overall I think that more focus on everything would have served you well.

This was by far the best "piano" shot. This is the kind of picture I really like, the kind I look for, too. The lines, different textures, muted colors all work very well together.
The reason this didn't score higher - it's not bold and flashy. This is a quiet picture that requires a viewer to linger a bit to really appreciate it. Very nice work!

This is a neat image! I wouldn't have guessed it to be a piano without the title. I like the tones of the wood. The focus is great. I think I would have liked it better if the lines were running horizontal with the nails at the top though. The shadows are very effective at adding to the rhythm.
For some reason this feels more like a fence than it does a piano. There's just no musical feeling. It is a nice concept, but I'm not sure I like the true vertical lines, especially in multiples.
