 The entryway to a church just up the street. I know this probably won't do well, but I liked it the best for the feel of drama that it has.

I really like the angle you utilized in this shot. Well thought out and excecuted. Clouds are very detailed and add to the feel. Border has a heavy weight about it but seems appropriate for the most part. Two things really bother me, however: the light inside the building and the light splotch on the brick that seems to have been dodged a lot. The sliver of light bulb is distracting to overall darkness of the interior and screams for attention. The lighter colored brickwork is a different shade than the rest and just looks out of place. Excellent job otherwise.

Wonderful image. great black and white tones and contrast. Something about the perspective is slightly unappealing to me however, it seems too skinny on the right and too fat on the left and even though I know that's how it naturally is from that angle it somehow seems "forced". Still a 9 though and in my top 5 for the challenge so no worries, just lettin ya know. :)
