On subject, I like chrome in photos.

nice shot. can't tell if you used G blur or not - but good dof either way. looks like pool table felt or something. Interesting color, can't make up my mind if I would like another color or not. I think maybe black or red would make it more dramatic maybe - and say more about the cuffs, without saying anything at all - green doesn't invoke an emotion imo like red for blood or black for...well black can mean so much.... but that's just a thought. nice work.

Nice close-up. The green is a little ugly and distraction. A little more cropping to the top and left sides might help.

Not sure I like how you've focused this picture. I think perhaps a black background may have been more effective as well, to bring out contrast. A nice composition otherwise though.

I like that you tried a different take then everybody else. Composition is very nice. The reflections, light, and shadows gives this handcuffs a lot of emphasize and bring it out of the background.
The focusing on the keys and blurring of the handcuffs looks really good and gives it an appealing depth of field.

Depth of field is a bit tight - unless you were going for having only the keys in foxus, this is blurrier than expected.

Nice one.

Freedom from what or whom, I'm not going to ask, but the fact these are on a pool table... Hmm.

I think this would have been sooo much better with the focus on the open cuff, rather than the keys.

strange how so many people own handcuffs ;)

I like the idea, although I would like it more if the handcuffs were not blurred.
