Nicely done. Not hugely attractive like for a wall hanging, but one of the more interesting shots in this challenge. Could be an ad for the World Poker Tournament with white text in the upper left corner.

Nice idea. How about more contrast in the background? Good focus and color on the foreground though.

I always thought you had the cards on the table when you played Stud Poker. This looks like draw poker. The cards are nice and sharp.

General: The tones are very pleasing and focus is on the brightest part of the image which is what draws the viewers attention.

Composition: The position of the watch itself seems to work however the image as a whole feels out of balance. This could be due to the sections of the image being of different widths and different intensities. It feels weighted a bit too much on the left. Removing the 'Buckle Up' text or changing its location may help. Also, the other text may help balance the image a bit if it were a bit lower in the frame.

Exposure: There are some areas of overexposure, on the buckle and in the background. However these areas are not large enough to present too much of a distraction. Changing the angle of view may have helped here.

Impact: Some impact is created by the tones used and the sharp focus. However, the misplacement of the text takes away from the impact of the other elements.

Keep shooting.

Comment by Brad:
One of a kind in this challenge.
The overall non-dead center composition is good, though the text is taking away from it inmy opinion. Perhaps not having the "Swiss Army + Watches" in it would have been better, as this shot makes me think belt buckle, as there is no watch visible. (5)
