Playing around with some old keys on a piece of slate. The lighting was accidental, the sun coming out just as I was taking the shot; I liked the angle of the shadows. The subject was pretty colourless, so I converted to B&W, adjusted contrast, levels.

Very nicely done! Love the diagonal lines puling you from one corner to another with a stop at the keys! Kinda framing the keys within the frame. Even the hars shadows under the keys works well.

Nice use of light and shadow. Not sure about the B&W. I think upping the contrast might have made this pop a little better. Otherwise, I like it and I hope others really look at it so they can really appreciate your use of light, etc. Good Luck.
You've managed to incorporate a fairly mundane object into a fascinating study of light and shadows. Like the tonal range and the detailed sharpness without artifactual distractions.
Very elegant, minimalist, on a background with an interesting texture. I'm not all that far into scoring yet, but it's the best I've seen so far. The level of brightness is exactly correct, and the older style of the keys makes the subject interesting.
