The background and light glares really detract from this image.

Interesting subject but the lighting is rather harsh.

The background is distracting

Background too distracting.

The glare from the flash is a bit distracting.

I think adjusting the backdrop behind the buddha will help. Maybe one solid fabric as the patterns are distracting.

Metal... or wood? A nice detail and surely a fine memory from a holiday trip but the straight flash to the face of buddha distracts quite a lot. The picture would also have been better if the background would have been "smoothier".

Fits challenge=0 -appears to be painted wood
Color/lighting=1
DOF/focus=1/ -1=0
Wow factor/uniqueness=1
Attractiveness=0

It appears to be wood with maybe paint or guilding (right word?) added to it, the background is very distracting a better DOF would have helped a lot, your focus seems to be sharp. Over exposed spots on face and chest could be avoided with a diffuser of some sort, maybe just moving it to a different position or closing the blinds on the windows.

Good luck

Makes me think spirituality rather than metal, and the lighting seems a little off.

Could have been a really great shot, looks more like wood than metal, needs a better background, plain sheet or something, and the dirt cleaned off

looks more like wood ... lighting to bright .. I find a piece of white cloth in front of the flash helps aviod the bright spots ... my 2c worth ...good luck
