I think you probably don't have enough resolution to get all those little flags on the center tie to make this an absolutely super picture.

This is more of a product shot, it is missing the dramatic lighting of a still life.

This meets the challenge – it’s inanimate and arranged. Not inspired, I'd say (but neat). 6
