Near Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix, Arizona there is an interesting rusted outdoor metal art piece in a building complex I like to photograph. The thing is about 4 stories tall.
I cropped the art piece to extent into the lower left and right corners.
My attempt was to have this image off-center in two ways: framing and color.
The subject is not centered nor does it fit the ROT.
That is why the sky color is aqua and it has a gawdy green border.
Voters failed to make the connection to the challenge topic when deciding how they felt about the border.
I liked it myself. :)

Well photographed work of art, I realy regret the green border, I have played with it a bit and my cconnclusion is that a simple white frame realy sets it off so much better.
It doesn't effect the score at all, but i feel the need to comment on your border. I think something a little more subtle would look better, but that is just my opinion. Interesting sculpture.
Interesting subject. I think it would have been better to title it differently. The sky is not off center but the object is. also, a basic border color - black or mayber a dark brown would set it off better than the green. Good job on the composition.
Very nice abstract, the green frame doesnt compliment this shot or colors at all. No points off though, but it would definately look better with a neutral color frame.
Well, I'm afraid the border just about ruined a really interesting shot here. I really like the subject, even though I don't quite know what it is. The detail in the metal (?) is really nice, and I like the color of the sky. The green was just not the best choice of border, in my opinion :(
wooah. wierd colors. don't like the border color, although it is interesting. Perhaps if the light blue was pure white it would be better. Was that the natural texture of the sculpture or did you use some sort of filter on it? It looks like a really fascinating piece of art and you did a nice job photographing it.
