maybe zooming in to the knob, leaving the keyhole into the image, would've been better?

This is nicely composed, with the main visual elements positioned well. A good level of detail, too. But I do find the burned out white spot in the background a bit distracting.

I'll take your word for it that the door knob is glass. But there's not a lot of "glassy" things happening, in terms of interesting reflection, refraction, etc.

interesting subject idea. wonder if you could do more.

Very nice!

Very nice way to integrate glass into an excellent picture!

I think this could have been an interesting subject, but you didn't do much with it. If you could get some light or some color working with it, or introduce a person (child) using the knob it would have helped the shot a lot.

A more extreme lighting might make this image more striking. Maybe a vertical orientation as well. Nice approach!

Simple, old fashion, and elegant.

the light on the right is distracting. otherwise, nice capture of the texture of the paint on door. The door itself is interesting...layers of paint and brush strokes.

interesting, but wish i could see more of the glass in this doorknob. the space on right side is a bit distracting

nice textures. I feel like i can reach out and touch it. great job.

Love the composition and textures. The light in the room is too bright a distraction though...

Extra credit for having me remember a place I lived in as a child that had glass door knobs :)

Well executed, light in the background adds the extra dimension that makes this quite artistic

I think that a different POV may have helped this image. The pattern in the glass is fairly interesting, but because door nobs are so common, I think it would be hard to get a really captivating image of one.

This picture is nice and sharp and all, but, dare I say it, I think it lacks interest. Just my own opinion of course and I don't know why I think this cos there are a lot more less interesting subjects that have been photographed in a more interesting way. Maybe if the light was more directional or/and the area on the right was darker to make it look more abstract.

I'd have liked this better at an angle so the entire shape of the knob could be seen.

Like traveling back in time, beautiful classic

Haven't seen those in a while.
