That's obviously not a tack... Ooops wrong challenge! :-P Great simple composition. Love the catchlight on the head of the pin. It's a little grainy, but doesn't detract from the overall effect, but I'm not sure it adds to the effect either. Did you add grain, or is that the way the camera captured it? Just curious.

Looking at this, I can see myself taking several dozen photos in an attempt to accomplish what you've managed in one. Whether it was the only effort or one in a hundred, it stirs a wee bit of envy here and that inspires and motivates. I suppose this all means that if I wished I'd thought of it .. and accept I'd have struggled to achieve it then I must commend your effort and success. Funny thing that ... it may easily have fallen onto your sensor with less effort than a sneeze -- it still looks great to these eyes . . .
Good, I like this. You've reduced the necessary information used to portray your subject to an absolute minimum, I would say. The concentric pattern of the light is key, and that pin is clear although its nothing more than pure black and white. strong compositionally also - feels like you've paid attention to the fine details, all of which stuff I would suggest is requiite for minimalism.
This is a nice image. I really like all the contrast seen in this photograph. I also like the shadow and the angle from which you shot this. Nice work.
Reminds me of a sundial or something. I like it in B&W. The spot seems a bit harsh to me. But that is just a personal opinon. I still gave it an 8. Good Luck.
This is great! I'm sitting here wondering how you got that perfectly white light right in the middle against the pure black background. Excellent job, and a very appealing minimalist photograph! 10
