This is a case where a title pointing people in the right direction, since there is so little detail in the photo it makes it hard for people to understand the context.

Something like "Crescendo" or "First Notes" or even "Sound Check" (no one would know it's not the band's mixing engineer) might have helped people along.

I liked the color and form as a semi-abstract, but people have so little time to vote here (well, some people) that if your subject and its connection to the challenge is not obvious, your score will probably suffer (I speak from experience). But don't let that stop you from submitting things that YOU are happy with!

Probably what I should have done, but I did something a little different.

Wish the upper-left of the bridge wasn't quite so bright.

Well that's about the most tasteful toilet art I've seen on the web, but I wish it didn't look like it has become unfastened and you're tipping it over.

What's really funny is that its coloring is kinda like my profile photo ....

Shadow Dance

The shape of the shadow (and time of year) makes me want to re-title this "Senior Prom."

I think I agree about either bringing out detail in the divider (screw threads), or get rid of the specular highlight and let it also be a soft, gray, semi-silhouette (shadow-like). Maybe take another version and spot-edit those highlights out to see.

Without messing with it I can't tell if rotation would help -- I think you got the "point" across pretty readily.

Really good job -- I want to try your duotone color scheme sometime.
