Ummm... fwiw, I gave you that 10 :) I honestly thought it was perfectly and naturally b&w. The DoF was solid and exactly where it needed to be to make this effective.

Grossly under-rated.

* Greetings from the Critique Club *

Hi Leo! Wow. This photo didn't seem to appeal to the voters at all. I think it may of been a little too abstract perhaps?

One thing I noticed about the winning photos in this challenge was that you could still make out what the photos were of whereas in your entry it's really difficult to even suggest what it may be. I'm trying to say this in a way that doesn't sound too mean but there's not a lot that appeals in this photo.

It's really hard to say whether the focus is right or not because of the subject but if I was to say anything it would be that the top of the photo seems more in focus than the lower half. The texture is interesting and works well in that regard. The blown highlight where the light is shining through I don't find adds any excitement.

All up, I think you gathered it was a photo that wasn't going to score too well maybe? Obviously voters didn't find it appealing and that's where it fell down. I think looking through your portfolio it's fair for me to say that it's not one of your better photos but we learn from these experiences. Keep at it and best of luck in future challenges!
