Hi,

It's an interesting shot but I don't think it's balanced very well. As the nail in the front has been the focusing point the shadow should not have been clipped, this is leading me out of the picture and so heavily weighting it at the bottom.

I have to agree with Steve, while I do like the concept I found myself only paying attention to the lower half.
