I love this approach to the challenge. The composition is daring and effective. It defies the "rule" of composition that says the focal point shouldn't be too close to the edge, and it works. The many diagonal lines make this very dynamic and exciting. I especially like the way you've used the freeway at the far left edge as an anchor.
The overall darkness and warm colors work with the composition to create a great mood. And the varied shapes and forms of the buildings meld together to create a nice texture, which further enhances this mood. Everything just works together perfectly here.
This isn't a photo that everyone will enjoy or appreciate. But I certainly do! Great job.
Interesting piece of work. I don't know if this was intentional, but since the sun is in the corner, and the roads lead diagonally from it, the roads look like they could be rays to the sun. Very nice concept!
