Good composition, apposite subject. Somewhat stylised for my taste - evidently set-up for the shot (or set-up for something else), but nevertheless the way you've shot it is strong, and it certainly fits the challenge.
I'm not reallly sure what this is, but it is very interesting. I would like to see it cropped a little tighter on the right to remove the vertical line, it seems to break up the flow of the shot.
I suspect that this is an art piece but you have captured it beautifully. The crack breaks the photo diagonally and the mauve coloration is subtle yet fitting. Good shot and good luck.
Probably not the best image in the bunch but one I have returned to more often than the rest. I like the emotional payload delivered. Comp is good. Execution is good. Among my favorites.
