 But not the birds. :-> This is the same site I took my Complementary Colors entry at; note that the building in the background of that other shot is NOT blue, but neither is it orange (as it might seem in this one!). :->

Sillhouette capture was a good choice here.

Cropping off the shadow at the bottom may have made the crane's shadow stand out even more, perhaps. Overall, the shot is a bit "flat" to me.

I am trying to comment on all the shots this time, this one is hard, to be honest I did not score it too high, but I think in fairness I need to tell you why. I think it is nothing screams out at me of interest, the shadow itself I think needs to pushed more-- i.e. darkened or more contrast to make the image stronger. I also don't think the bottom shadow does much but to distract from the more interesting crane part. keep up the efforts. (just my opinion)

would have liked to have seen the image of the crane darker against the building. The image is very grey and grainy..

Could almost be Kertesz - fabulous shot. Can't mentally twist it enough to fitt tthe challenge though: there seems to be only one element here.
