oh, very pretty entry. It should have done better, of course.

Nice texture of the paint. The "new" master lock doesn't seem to fit with the rusted hinge and handle.

It matches the shoot nicely, but it's a very boring picture.

the overall sharpness of your image makes it strong

Great sharpness and contrast. The blue hues around some of the cracks and on the metal of the padlock is a shame, might have been worth desaturating all blues/cyans

I find it interesting that the padlock is hanging "down" while the lines of the wood are at an angle. This perspective definitly adds motion to the right.

I like how the padlock is nearly vertical. Makes you stop and look a bit longer. Should help your score I think. :-) Good luck in the challenge.
