Default The Hammock

Would like Critique on Composition, Focus, and overall B&W quality.

Taken with a Canon Rebel XT, ISO 100, RAW. Thats all I remember.

It looks pretty good. Its always more pleasing to have true black and white in an image instead of just desaturating it. My complaint would be that the hammock seems to be the subject, but you have isolated and focused on the chain that is holding it up. This draws my eyes away from the hammock and onto the chain.

Good concept and idea...but i think the angle should have been different....a bit more from the side maybe....
Anyways, good work.
