Nice job, Rae Ann. Looking back, I think what really struck me about this are the highlights (ironic in a shadows challenge), especially the one on the pipe and just below the pipe. It creates this silky(?) otherworldly texture.

Subtle, very subtle. I don't know if the sepia works better than straight B&W for this theme..Comp is interesting but the reflection is distracting. Just my humble opinions...

The colors took away from your shadow, but added to the picture.

I'm afraid that shadow does nothing for the photo.

I think you need a bit more contrast between shadow and background. The shadow isn't really the main impact of this photo. My eye is immediatly drawn to the door and the pattern of bricks and then the pipe.
