This image has too much mass on top, feels for me like it's falling real soon now. Detail is exquisite, but feels like it's under utilized.

When I first saw the image I thought 'cool' and then I scrolled down and saw the portrait orientation and found the nail quickly losing the dynamic impact that I originally saw. I like the diagonal of the wood, the tonal range looks good, the wood also has a good texture to it, and the nail adds interest. I think it would likely have more impact in a landscape orientation.

Nice subject. With something like this, I almost want the picture to be more macro, though. Really make the nail impressive and imposing. Maybe I'm young, but 1951 should carry a little weight. :-) Still, nice picture.

You need more negative space, and more contrast

Excellent use of high contrast to really show the texture of the worn wood and accretions. Love that nail with the number on the head. How intriguing. An excellent image.
