Editing steps included hue/saturation, selective color, curves, and levels. This was a hard challenge to pick an entry for. Hope this meets the criteria of no subject, even if it could be said that the subject is architecture.

I'd say this meets the challenge well. After all you do have to take a picture of something.
Colors are great, and saturation/contrast/exposure and hues are all very well done. I really like the reflection of the clouds, across the face of the building. It definetly adds interest and texture to the picture. Your choice of subject matter was a good one. Only two things come to mind, in this very well done photograph. First is focus. I'm not not sure if it isn't just an illusion, but things look a bit soft along the black lines. Maybe it's just me, or a trick played by the lines as some sort of optical illusion. The other is the patch of sky at the upper left. Since this is an advanced editing challenge, if you had made it darker, or more of a contrast or even a compliment to the other colors, it might have added to the picture. As it is, you have these great colors, with a little bland bit at the upper left corner. I don't think just cropping it out would have worked either, because you would have lost too much of the rest of the picture. So unless you could have found a better angle, the sky bit needs to be in there. Overall a very good picture, as exemplified by your score. Well done!
Well done Amy. I took lots and lots of shots there when they were building the house, right across from my dentist in Malmö. It is such a wonderful place and your shot is a good job, so much better than my shots of it :)
