I think 99% of people used push pins instead of tacks. :)

Wasn't sure what I was looking at the first time. Too bad ther wasn't more of the bike frame remaining. In my humble opinion, a lower angle to the track to create a distance of travel would make a bit of an improvement.

quite the stretch. It would also be better if the printing in the two notes were not in the same person's writing.

Comment by Teafran:
Sometimes a theme invokes a different idea or concept and this is clearly one of those images which meet the challenge subject in completely different fashion than one might normally expect. A great idea which falls short of perfection. The overally flat tones and color detracts from the subject's impact. The DOF control is sound and effective. If this image could have been tone mapped, it would have helped tremendously and probably would have been a ribbon contender. A good solid entry into the challenge.
