I have looked at this image about 15 times and I just figured out what it was, it was playing tricks with my mind......The conversion to B&W really works for me....nicely done.
This kind of looks like you have some over sharpening artifacts, but I believe it is really just the harshness of the lighting. You do have some jaggies caused by this though. TC
Took me a moment to figure out the subject, but that was good! Meets the challenge perfectly. Would have liked to see a frame of some sort. The lettering on the third piece of wood (from the left) on the top is distracting, but outside your control. 8
excellent composition. one of the few that i've seen so far that use parrallel lines to provide the main subject for the shot. and nice tonal range as well.
