Nice, elegant, simple. Cool contrast. Interesting that you flipped the piano keys. I predict top 5 for you.

Nice creative shot. B&W def works great here. Personal pref maybe but i would have liked the keyboard turned around to be more natural facing it. I feels a bit odd like this 7

Hi, Critique Club here...

I have to congratulate you for taking chances. Unfortunately, when you crawl out on a limb, sometimes it breaks. I think this one broke.

I think it scored low for a number of reasons.
1) People don't know what it is. If this were an abstract challenge, people would expect that but in these types of challenges it's mostly eye candy that scores well.
2) I pulled it in to Photoshop and it's a couple stops underexposed. That gives it a sort of muddy appearance.
3) The dark edge in the upper right is a bit of a distraction. I think you could have cropped it out and still maintained your rule of thirds as you did with this composition.

I hope this is somewhat helpful. Good luck in your next challenge.

GREETINGS FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB

You was robbed! Seriously, I enjoyed your image during voting and felt lucky to get it again in the Critique Queue just now. It certainly meets the Challenge, is well composed and seen and is technically well done.

Was the answer to your sort-of-middling score in Luci11e's observation when she commented:

nice perspective - I really had to study this image to see what I was looking at

It is unfortunate that our viewer/voters sometimes just don't take the time to LOOK. Still, while your image didn't make the front page, it did engender some very positive feedback. You are not afraid to step out on a limb to get a good shot. It shows nicely in your work.

I look forward to seeing more of your images in the queue and hope this small critique was helpful to you.

Alice
