I see no connection to the challenge. Fingers and toy are out of focus -- in fact, I didn't realize there was a toy for quite some time. Not much to engage in this picture. 1
Well when I first saw this I was gonna say gotta hate when your fingers get in the photo. Then I noticed you were hoding up a small jet. Photo is a bit dark and blurry. I also do not see the rust in it.
The hand and little fighter jet are out of focus here. Granted that might be a 'time to setup the image' factor more then anything else, but it would have popped out at me a little better to see 'everything' focused in for me.
sorry to say so ... but the quality of this image is not very good ... the model plane you are holding is so out of focus that it is almost impossible to recognize ... and what has it got to do with rust ?
Where is the rust? >:( The little model and fingers in the foreground are out of focus. The exposure is too dark- the bright white horizontal line seems to be throwing off your light meter.

After looking hard for a moment, I noticed that the fingers are holding something that I think is a small toy jet, which I assume is rusted (to fit the challenge). You need some lighting or a flash. I would try to come up with some other way to hold the toy, the fingers really take away from the shot. I would also try cropping some of the background out, it seems pretty busy.

I don't see the "rusted" part of this - it looks like a proportion photo. That said, I think the DOF is off, I can't quite make out the foreground model plane so the impact is lost. The pixelation on the fingers is also very distracting. An interesting concept that could have been better executed.
would have been great in proportion challenge but i didn't see how the rust theme was applicable. the army does love the zoomies though. thanks for the pic
