I nearly didn't post this one because I was thinking of using it for still life. Only I'm not convinced it would do well there.

I was late for an auction this morning and missed most of what I was interested in, and the rest was too expensive. It didn't really matter because there was nothing that special.

No, they didn't lock me out, but it felt a bit that way. This padlock was hanging on their security gate. At least I go this photo for my trouble.

lol when i saw the thumbnail i was thinking this was one of those DPC voting friendly pics. You should have done it! Of course, I did not look yet to see if you did enter anything or not.

The dark background really enhances the unfriendly feeling of being locked out.

I love the contrasting colors of the padlock, and the other shades of metal, too. The way you've cropped the gate makes it seem like a cross. Nice deep blacks in the background.

It may not do well in still life, but it's well done and nice story to get with it. I like the composition, and the fact that the part of gate you captured is actually a cross makes it interesting.

Yaaay and a very good photo at that. I love the slightly duller sheen on the chain than that on the padlock arm and the focus is spot on. Very interesting and attractive compositional elements as well

I love the tones in the gray steel.
