 I was actually doing some test shots for the unrelatedness challenge and was unable to finish those so I looked to see if I had anything for this challenge. I tried to recreate the shot so that I could get a little bit more depth of field but just couldn't get the lighting right. It probably could use a bit more contrast but I really liked where it is at. As far as editing goes, I just did camera raw adjustments, cropped, smart sharpened, added borders, sized for DPC.

I'm not sure how I like the selective focus being so far on the left of the frame (my eyes are drawn to the black keys, and the only one in focus is the one on the left). Interesting composition otherwise, though. a 7 for now.

A little out of focus. Good picture. Not sure alot of the other entries in this challenge would be considered High Contrast, yours definitely is. 6
