Congrats on your first >5.0 score. You even managed to evoke one more 9 and 10 votes than I did in this challenge - I only got one 10 and three 9's :)

The gloves are off for the next challenge though!

Oh and another thing - this is now the second best photo ever submitted to a challenge using this camera! (see //www.dpchallenge.com/camera.php?CAMERA_ID=1055)

A very striking image, I like this a lot. Great contrast between the rigid foreground and the much softer background. =9

would almost prefer no sun to a crooked horizon, very nice colors though.

I think the technique of silhouetting doesn't really work with a subject of metal. Nice picture, though.

It would have been stronger if more definition of the metal was present. As it looks to my eye, the sunset is your subject and the metal just happens to be in the way. And one comment I get a lot, it could have been straightened a little.
