This B&W in color challenge would be a rather tough one. I thought about entering it, but everything around here and out doors where I like to shoot has a lot of color in it.
This image is a good find, to get the light thru the pipes the way you did, and the shapes and lines are good too. I think that it got voted down in the challenge because there is a lot of noise in the darker areas, and, for this challenge, something with high contrast on very strong lines would have been better.
The general low key (not bright) effect keeps the image from getting a lot of views from the thumbnail, because it is difficult to see what it is in thumbnail size.

nails? Hmmmm... There needs to be one element that catches my eye and holds me to the photo, but I just don't see anything that does.

I feel strange voting on these abstracts because I really don't like that form of art, but I'm going to attempt it anyway! I think the color pallete is awesome, you've met the challenge well and there is some sort of balance to this so you get good marks from me. I feel no connection to it and no interest at all though (I hope you realize that is a fault of mine and not the photo!). 7
