I didn't vote on this challenge, but I would have scored this a 6 or 7. Yes, it's busy, but so is LA. I really like those signs, and the palm tree in the corner is an extra treat.
Thanks for the kind comments Matt and David, and everyone else who commented as well. I think the shot suffered from being too "busy" and not having a clear subject. But that's the way the DPC cards fall I guess :) The setting was actually very well lit despite being 11pm at night. So that helped alot with the shutter speed and hand-holding the camera.
Hand-held?!? Woah - you must have a steady hand! I would never had guessed such a short shutter speed, either. I also think it should've placed higher than this.
Thats a nice technique, looking forward to see how long the shutter speed was in the details after the voting is over! Really well done for not overexposing the "city loft" sign too much!
I like the lighting and the colors. The scenery is certainly very busy. However, having more people around would have added to the hustle and bustle feel.
I like the idea of this shot but there are some ghosts in it that im finding very distracting. You should have either done a very fast shutter speed to capture everyone or a slower one so they would leave better trails the way it is now is just giving this shot a very muddy feel to it
