Cutting blades. Roman Quarry. Les Baux. France

As this stands, it is well framed, and gives a documentary sense of what's going on. Technically well executed, but on a still object in a museum setting, that is as it should be. A 'nice' image.

When I zoomed in to see the screws, I saw the bird. And that made me stop. The interest in this image is to do with the blades and the rock. And that little bonus bird, which serves as such a neat 'scale' object. It tells of the size of these blade more than anything else.

Have you tried cropping just the bottom half of the blades, with the bird? On my screen in full view, I think that kind of framing really lifts this shot from a walk-by picture to something that captures my interest at a whole new level. The detail of the rock then stands out.
The lines work, with the bird being a lead-in, and the blue metal guard guiding the eye back into the image, giving a nice framing to the composition.
And then the eye notices those lovely concentric circles, disappearing off into the background, and one notices how many blades there really are, and how those slices are cut.

And the detail of the screws stands out.

A good image, able and willing, I think, to be something more.
