Masterlock

What I did to this shot was up the saturation and cropped it.

I like what you saw here in the colors and textures. good spotting. the issues i have with this image are
1. The crop is too tight, especially at the right where the lock almost meets the edge. I feel it can also use a crop from the bottom to make it , say an 8x10 format. This would bring the lock down below keeping it out of the center area.
2. I think an older more worn out lock would be a lot more interesting for this type of shot where the subject is texture and old rustic appeal.

I like the colors and the sharpness is good enough. I also like the off angle perspective which adds some charm to it.
Not bad all in all.
