Wow! I'm surprised this only scored 5.7. It's awesome. It looks so desolate, yet the colors are so rich and pretty!

a little overdone on the sepia, but a nice image.

looks like the contrast was hard to handle - you have almost blown highlights on the top and very dark shadows. Good location choice. 6

another wonderful image to represent the word desolation, very well focused with a wonderful sepia tone, yhou did well with the framing, and the lighting, well done.

Well seen but the tones don't do it justice.

Reminiscent also of prison camps the world over in various of the last century's wars. Creative license with the title might help. I think it is nicely processed the the tones work well.

I really like this shot, but find myself longing for more detail that I might have got if the shadows were not so dark. Maybe a little less contrast? At any rate great job.
