Converting to Digital Negative, then load into Camera Raw. Increase BLACKS, counter with FILL LIGHT, sharpen, some noise reduction, resize. No border this time.
I'll never forget the scene in the '60's when Barnabas encased a man into a brick enclosure.
I predict 4.2.

I can feel the slap and roughness of cold concrete against the hand- the shoulder blades and wandering hands of young lovers against the wall in the night, the blank slate for which the viewer can imagine, dream...
your prediction may be correct, but in a just world, no less than 6.3
Who is Barnabas? a cinderblock designer? you've captured quite a bit in a plain wall, different colored blocks and mortar shades, dark to ligh to dark is always good in a composition, its quite sharp with lots of detail in the blocks and different textures in the blocks. good luck. I'll guess at 5.23 Good Luck
I don't think DPC will like the skewed perspective. It will disorient them. They can tolerate very little discomfort. For the same reasons, I will bump you to a six. 3.9
First pass I gave this three. Drab colours, out of whack perspective and so boring I could only manage that three. However, on coming back to comment, and look a little longer, I can see several fascinating faces and figures in the bricks so I have to bump you up to five.
I still think you might struggle to reach your title though, because those fascinating beings take a while to become apparent. I predict a 3.805 average.
3.965 (I gave it a four) I just don't find it very interesting. Perhaps if there were a focal point for the viewer... like a plant spounted in the crack?
Clearly 2 dimensional yet the lines are parallel with the top of the frame but not the bottom. So perhaps a tribute to the third dimension in a quite minimal way. 4.265
I don't know what the Barnabas collection is. Cinder blocks as art? I like it. Nice colors and detail. I like that there is nothing except cinder blocks in the picture. I could see this framed and on my wall. I gave it a seven. I predict 4.4.
I think you are overstimating this image, but a lot of the time people don't vote truthfully on boring images which leave nothing to the imagination. However saying that you might get around 4.2 but you deserve a lot lower, grin!
Hello, I voted a few days ago, now returning for comments. I think that you estimated your score well, I gave you a four and I think that you will finish at 4,2366
