what a sweet capture, and the statue really resonates with that dark and eerie building.

This is an awesome shot, I'm from Cleveland btw :-)

Congratulations on the Ribbon and an awesome shot! Well done!

This is fantastic. I think if I'd made voting I would have said the top hand was not quite as sharp as the rest, which is a shame, but it hardly detracts from the quality of the rest of the picture. The composition is perfect with the building behind, and I love the way the ground at the bottom seems to be weighed down by the statue. Can anyone else see that very slight curve?! It really works to add something extra to the photo, somehow! (Wow that was technical :-P)

Fantastic job - wonderful image. Congrats on the ribbon.

Congrats on a real winner! Into my FAVS it must go! (I gave it a '9' but wish I would have come back to bump to a '10!')
Post actions
Glad my 10 took. This is truly outstanding - congrats on the red ribbon. If the competition hadn't been so fierce, you certainly would have had the blue.
Post actions
Very glad to see this photo ribbon...congrats on winning the red ribbon!

Killer shot man, IMHO best in the lot.

Keith, you really deserved the red ribbon man...this is perfectly exposed and beautifully captured. I knew you would be slightly ahead of me and believe it or not, my score dropped a full 0.12 in 12 hours! Anyhow, congrats man and well done.

I love your composition on this. The title is so fitting here. Good luck!
Post actions
Simply beautiful, one of my favourites.

I like the composition but looks like it lost a lot of detail in downsizing the image for display.
Post actions
Nice.Composition couldn't be better.
Post actions
I like the way you framed this shot Very creative
Post actions
Wonderful! Very Innovative!
Post actions
This is absolutely wonderful! The lighting is perfect, crisp, clear. The framing of the statue with the building is perfect! 10 for me!!
Post actions
I love the symmetry and colors in this photo, reminds me somehow of one of those cartoonish movies (like batman's gotham city, sin city, etc etc.) Probably because the building in the back looks surreal. I love it!
Post actions
i love how you framed this! great job
Post actions
cleveland :). i've taken a picture of this monument before but yours is a lot better. 10!
Post actions
Very nice shot in downtown Cleveland. Beautiful. (Night of the Home Opener?!) BOL. 9 here
Post actions
I like it, I like it alot. The composition is brilliant, this should ribbon.
Post actions
Nicely put together. Great Job!
Post actions
Love the composition. could go for a bit more light further up the statue, a bit hard to make out detail up there. It's rather phallic, was this intentional, or am I reading to much into this? 7
Post actions
I predict ribbon, but I'm only giving you a 6. :P
Post actions
Great composition and exposure. Nicely done.
Post actions
Lovely composition! (now that I think about it this is actually pretty phallic?) I like how everything seems very symmetrical. With shots like this even a little bit of tilt can be devestating. Seems a tiny tiny bit off because of the way the building has the extra part on the right but that doesn't make me go "oh um the picture is tilted!" but instead adds to the vibrancy of the image. 10!
Post actions
Neat image. I am not so sure I like the statue and the building in the background occupying the same space, however. They somewhat compete for the eye.
Post actions
I wonder where this is. Nice composition, interesting subject, contrast a bit flat. 8
Post actions
Amazing clarity, great highlights/shadows, and excellent composition. Well done! :)
Post actions
Post actions
I really like the alignment of the statue and skyscraper. A very subtle duplicity and works great visually. Really nice glow of light off the fog/mist. Stunning photograph!
Post actions
Post actions
this is a well constructed image...although i think that the statue itself may have stood a little more light.
Post actions
wow...that's really dramaitic...i would imagine this would look fantastic at night in real life...good image
Post actions
Great composition. I really like the fog effect. The buildings seem to be tilted just a hair to the right, though.
Post actions
AWESOME COMPOSITION. SO VERY AWESOME. Good luck!
Post actions
this one should imho score high.... 10
Post actions
Wonderful composition and exquisitly executed

Excellent composition and exposure.! 8
Post actions
amazing composition, great colours and whilst at first i wanted a bit more contrast in the sky/background, i think this is perfect as is
Post actions
Love how you have framed the statue with the building in the background
Post actions
very cool use of the background complimenting the foreground!
Post actions
Reaching for a RIBBON! Front page material for sure. Great shot! The building in the background looms ominously and makes the shot all that more interesting.
