I know the crop factor is...unique... I'm not so much interested in that. I'm most interested in feedback on exposure, as well as thoughts on composition elements (especially the metal flow in the foreground) maybe success as a b&w too. Of course anything else is appreciated.

I rather like this image. I think the exposure is fairly good but you might be able to push the white channel a little more. The various textures and geometric shapes work overall but the wire/metal flow in the foreground is very distracting and detracts from the overall rather than adding to it. If you could remove that your image would be much stronger without it.

I somewhat agree with the previous comment...I think the metal structure is very interesting and would make a good subject on its own, but I think it's a bit distracting here. Not much though, the whole image content is still very interesting and well composed, which successfully compensates for the distraction. I also think your b/w conversion is great. Nice job!
