A B+W Bench Lock

[theeternal_1]

Was not sure if it should go here or "other." Mods please move if this is not the proper area.

The main question I have is: Does the angle work for you? It makes me feel a little uncomfortable when I look at it. Does it do the same to you? Is that bad/good?

The noise is added, should it be?

Thank you.

I find the angle of the chain/ lock a little uneasy as the link that is on top of the lock defies gravity. I don't know about the noise, though. I think I would get rid of it as the composition alone gives you the feeling you are obviously after. If you introduced the noise as a way to provide selective focus for the lock, maybe you should have shot the photo with a large aperture, and a different lens. I like the photo!

Try rotating the picture 90 Degrees CCW. I think that would help a lot. As for the noise, It's all personal preferance but I like it.
