Decent composition, nice DOF that focuses your eye on the main strand there. The thing that I don't care much for in this shot is the metallic tone of the rope itself. I'm not sure if that is from PP or just the nature of the material, but it tends to kill some of the contrast in the shot and give it a washed out look. Otherwise, nice work.

The lighting throws this off for me a bit, but good detail on top rope.

Wormy Shot! I like the texture but hate the lack of DOF... a 6 for me

imo the b/w makes the lighting too harsh - 6

So before the challenge I was trying to think of something that would be considered "greyscale" and couldnt really come up with anything. Well you have one here and its a great shot to boot. My only complaint ( a small one at that) is the left eye - either all in or all out IMO. Hope this scores well for you. Back to bump - you get one more point from me - good luck tonight!
