What do you think of this one? Any tips to make it a better photo? Any obvious flaws? Personally I like it, but I am willing to learn

I like the concept but the light is coming from the wrong side, and is putting the subject of the photo in shadow. Maybe you can bring out the details on the chain.

It doesn't really say much to me - what's locked away? With more dramatic lighting it might stand better on its own...

I think it's too centered, horizontally.

Forget the this forum's guidelines - I, personally, would prefer that pictures be posted small enough that I don't have to scroll up and down to see the whole picture with my 1280 x 1024 monitor.
