This makes for a fine composition and it's well photographed. That belt buckle intrigues me. Wonder what it would look like to feature just the buckle and maybe a "new" belt. That's just my curiosity at work. You have a fine image here.

The two locks would be good for opposites: open and closed. I just wonder why the buckle is in this photo, A light focused on the back drop might have helped eliminate shadows.
Nice rustyness, and a technically good photo, but it's just not very interesting. It seems to sit somewhere between zen-like simplicity, and interesting complexity without being either.
