Totally cool and at first I thought it was a horseshoe as that is what I want to photograph for thr letter "U" so may have to visit a horse stable.

Strong image. The strong shadows work very well here, along with the interesting texture. The dof is not enough to keep the whole chain in focus and feels strange that the sharpest focus is half way back the depth of the chain, instead of including the bottom of the "U."

I'd also like the detail part of the upright pipe (rings) cropped out. It pulls the eye away from the chain.

BlueZamia, that's not a cheat, that's enhancement!

I love the way the texture makes the L pop.

The detail is just shy of what I'd like to see. Since you're shooting a flat plane, I'd use a smaller dof (f4.0 or so) to increase the shutter speed and sharpen the details.
