I have to say I just love this shot! I am so surprised to see it only ranked 114/280. I for sure thought it to be of much better quality. It is a very intriguing and appealing photo. I still would rate it a 10!
I really like this photo! Such a wonderful portayal of 'city life'. Good capture of the lighting and height of the buildings. The clouds in the sky add a certain interest to this photo. Good job! A 10

Overall feeling it is too dark, but I see the problem with trying to keep the sky from blowing out. I like the slight tilt to the image -- that and the darkness make me think I'm looking at the villains in Gotham in a Batman movie.
This shot originally scored very low with me and upon second appraisal I will be raising my score but only by a few points. The angle of the shot really throws me and it if was a bit more level I probably would have liked it much better. The focus is too soft , more sharpness would have really worked on this for me. The sense of the challenge was met without a doubt, really conveys that sense of urban.
