Nice subject. Would have liked to see a little better lighting and DOF.

Why is this titled 'Diamond Strings'? Considering that this is a 'Rope' challenge that might have been a mistake...nonetheless, on the serious side - what's the connection? Is it the knots used or something?

As for the image itself I like the way you've put it together. The layout is divided in a ROT manner, the lighting is good with focus hitting the sweet spot of the rope/cord/string, and the DOF fadeout at the bottom works well.

Good luck in the challenge.

Took me a while to find the rope. Not very strong theme. The DOF can be improved slightly. 6 for me.

Trying to figure out what the rope is in this. I don't think it is the drum head and strings below it seem out of focus.

Nice angle. Maybe the lighting could be a little different to bring out the rope more and a little more focus on the whole image.

It was very difficlut for me to find the subject, but I like the colors.

a bit hard to see the detail of the knots ... love the DOF choice ..

Less shadow on your djembe.

nice composition and depth of field...the darkness adds to the mystery
