I admire this one for alternative thinking. I wish the back part of the hinge were lightened a stop or so.

Composition: 4, The hinge doesn't take command of this image, even with the desaturation.
Technical: 5, The single extra bright screw head just takes over. You need to subdue it.
Appeal: 4
Challenge: 7, The mechanical portion is not strong enough in this image.
Overall Calculated Average Score: 5

even though the image quality is poor, this is still one of my favorites in the challenge. hopefully, you'll get enough comments to learn from. the composition is nice, but the colors are a bit dull. the pixelation can be controlled a bit in the editing process, but it might be that you are asking a bit more from your camera that it is capable. all the same, nice find, and, if this doesn't score where you wanted it to, don't be discouraged. just keep on shooting!

Out of focus. Good composition though.... Fits the challenge but it is not appealing at all for me. Poor contrast and washed out colours Sorry 3

A little soft and bland. Maybe the low light had the AF hunting. Nice find and good observation.

Nice shot, maybe it would have more impact cropping the photo to emphasis the hinge more.
