Comment by Neil:
Nice idea! I like this better than the other yin-yang ones I've seen so far. But I wish you had pulled off full symmetry here, and maybe true color symmetry as well.

Comment by HBunch:
Very nice. I think your DOF is wonderful. The in focus subject with the out of focus background works great. Nothing distracting in the background. Focus on your subject is great. I like the angle at which you took the photo and also the crop you chose. Definately a rusted subject, fits the challenge perfectly. Very nice shot. ~Heather~

Great DOF and framing. A little more light on the subject might improve the picture.

Comment by whagerbaumer:
Very nice photo. The background is diffused to just the right degree. As rust is so dark, I would favor even more exposure to light.

A 6.

Comment by rosie:
I am drawn to this photo ... the background colour compliments the rust which has a lovely feeling of age ~ good job well done :)
