Greetings from the critique club :)
I didn´t vote in this challenge but would probably have given it a 6 or maybe a 7, I like this shot.
As for meeting the challenge, it obviously does but maybe not as obviously as you may think. The gap you created is prett small and I am sure at least a couple of voters didn´t really notice the gap or had to search for it, I would have reccomended you lose one or two chain links more or remove one that was flat on you so that the chain looked more like this instead of how it looks now.

That would just lead to the missing link being more visible, I think you get what I mean.
Lighting is pretty good, I know it´s not easy to take photos of silver objects on a black backround so well done. Composition is also pretty good and simple wich is also good for DPC. All in all I am surprised it didn´t do better in the challenge, think it deserves at least a 6+ score but I can also well understand why it didn´t score a top 10 placing since shot´s like this were done quite a bit in the challenge and if you compare this one to the red and yellow ribbon photos, those just look much more difficult and thought out than your entry.
Kind regards from Iceland, Lárus. |

Nice and sharp, I guess suspending disbelief is necessary sometimes when looking for the missing link. |

Nice photo but not 'Great'. I feel it is lacking a more dynamic feeling. However, the sharpness is good, the concept is good and the overall photo quality is good. I guess what I'm trying to say is- Good shot |

Nice twin light setup. It might help if the metal was a little less contrasty. To help this, you can setup white reflectors (paper is always good) all around the front of the shoot, so that you can see the texture of the medallion a little better. |
