Hello from the Critique Club:
For what it is worth, I rated this image a 6. I thought that your photo met the challenge and showed you have a good grasp of the technical aspects of photography. Your score suffered in this challenge not for any blatant shortcomings of the image but for the same reason mine did, the voters didn't relate your subject as Bits & Pieces. As noted in your comment section, the toy was pretty new and your score could have suffered some because the toy didn't look like a pet did the damage. Either way, the fact that the winning image scored less than a 7 indicates that people voted this challenge lower and everyone's scored suffered for it.
