nice detail...but the key is a bit too far to left in my eyes.

I like the photo but its a bit static. Need more in the picture to make it interesting

Wow - look at the texture on that key. I like the framing too. Light is perhaps a little harsh.

These old keys like this are really neat :) This photo does a good job of showing the age of this key and the background works well too. My only suggestion for possible improvement would be to back up just a tad to allow some breathing room for the key along the edges of the frame... - jmsetzler

nice key, i wish the background had provided more of a contrast for it, however. ~mcmurma

i like the way you have captured the detail of the wood and key. Maybe cropped/framed a little too tightly on the top and bottom. karmat

Why is the key so far to the left?

Good texture on the key here.

Rule of THIRDS not FIFTHS. Move the key over to the right a bit.

very odd crop

I love macro - I love the way this looks like a giant key leaning on a door... An unusual method of locking a door. I have to score it 10 on the grounds that it meets the challenge and not because I'm a macro fan, it's also a blooming good shot - so I have... It deserves to do well...

My kind of picture. :-) 8

More color contrast would have helped the key stand out.

I think this may have worked better with some different lighting and maybe less of a vertical position for the key to add interest. Maybe try hanging the key from a nail to put some space between it and the wood? Lisa

I find the wood too similiar in color and texture to provide a good background. I'd like a higher contrast.
