This is a beautiful shot but it's way oversharpened as evidenced by the white halos throughout.

I hate telephone poles, but they sure work well here. Great light and composition.

I am not sure we are talking about telephone lines, but I guess there are many interpretations. And of course, there are other geometric implied lines here.

As to the composition, iIn this nice closeup, I find the extreme blur on the right VERY distracting. Oddly enough, perhaps because it's light, my eyes are drawn to it rather than the focal point. But it's so blurry that it kind of "hurts" your eyes.

Very nice. I think a small crop of the left might make this even better. But I like it a lot.

Nice idea and colorful. I know the tilt is to add interest but I think I would have preferred to avoid the background. Might have been interesting to tilt the other way and include the more "backgroundish" pavement.

Very cool shot. I would suggest , however, cropping the right hand side pipes out of the shot, or cloning them out.

Now that's a funny sign--what's that supposed to mean? That Bush didn't inhale? Or is that somehow "for" Kerry and Bush.

Very good idea for the challenge, those clouds are incredible. The tops are pretty overexposed unfortunately--the bottoms have such wonderful texture and tones, as do the rocky cliffs, it would be nice to do something to address the overepxosed areas.

This is very well laid out--I especially like the "background" placemat and how the pattern compliments the cup color and adds some complexity to the photo.
