This is my second go-around =) - I think the broken angel is a little disturbing looking... but overall I think you did a great job. I think the flash was a little too close to the angel... I would like to see it burned in a little. But great colors in the sky. Overall I think you did a good job =) poor angel though!
I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

The light hurts your photo. It looks as if you used a flash and that takes away from the shot. I like your sky in the background.
