Greetings from the Critique Club...

This photo scored rather poorly and I believe the comments you received sum up the result fairly well. It's simply out of focus. Your patterns are good though. You have concentric circles that are highlighted by the threads/lines inside the wheel. I believe the composition may also be a little too tight for comfort. The edge of your primary circle is practically touching the right side of the frame. This image is also fairly noisy and unclean. I'm not sure if this may be a crop out of a much larger image or not, but that would be my guess. As far as the poor focus is concerned, it could be that you were too close to the subject for the lens you used. I'm not sure there either.

This is a good idea for a photo but I think you can execute it a lot better with a little time and effort. Get a tripod, set up your composition, shoot it at a low ISO, and see your results improve :)

Wish this were a bit bigger so we could see the details more.

Would be nice to see a bigger version to make out the detail. Love the color, love the shape, but the shelving in the backround is distracting from the wheel.

Small images are very hard to judge. This one just looks a little too cluttered.

Sepia works well with the antiquity, but the shape seems lost in the background

Pic is too small. Needs to be resized. You're probably going to get hit on this in scoring.
