Colors seem a little bland to me. Maybe the purple background just overpowers the subject. bamaster (6)

Great concept, the background color should contrast with the rope.

I LOVE this idea. Unfortunatly, I feel the shot does not do justice to your idea. I wonder what other ways this idea could have been used in order to make it visually more interesting. But I love its statement. Better lighting maybe? Or a closer look? Or interaction with someone? I don't know... 7/10 for originality... would have been a 10 if the shot had been perfect.

Since the string is kind of purple in color, a different background may have worked better.
