Excellent shot, wouldn't change a thing
In particular:
Compo is very well balanced. I might have said you cropped a bit tightly on the top edge, but in this case I think the tight crop adds to the effect, i.e. pushes attention down to the actual noose.
Very good creative exposure, 10/10 for that. In a shot like this, you don't want a technically 'correct' exposure at all, that would spoil the whole ambience of the scene. Here you've got areas of high contrast, which fits brilliantly with the subject matter, i.e. light/dark = life/death!
You have clear detail in the rope only, i.e. the wall, rafters + pulley give way in favour of the rope, so that attention quickly falls squarely on the noose.
I like that the corner of the wall is not vertical. The slight diagonal adds to the 'all is not square here!' message.
This is excellent work Fiona, very well done indeed
