It is what it is not, therefore it both meets and does not meet this challenge.
I realize that this photo will likely fail because there will be plenty that "don't get it" but I believe that it is the only type of image that can truly both meet and not meet the challenge at the same time.

A really fabulous image... except the horizon is rotated about 10 degrees out. This can really kill a fine image and is probably why you didn't get the brown ribbon.
congratulations for having the same idea as me - and unlike all the other commenter's who are saying that I actually entered it. It will be interesting to see who scores higher - me (with a square crop) or your uncropped version.
I had this idea too but I wanted to do it in white. I was going to name it Black. You should have named yours White, then it wouldn't have met the challenge.
Someday I hope there will be a challenge for monotonic images, but until then there is no way this meets the challenge. Congratulations! But I do say that I liked the square entry better because it maximized it's pixels for greater detail. For this reason I can only give you a 9. Sorry.
This is animage that doesn't actually show anything. It doesn't meet the challenge. it does not meet any challenge at all, but that's exactly the point!
:) I was going to do exactly the same for this challenge (but went to bed instead) so will be curious to see how this turns out. Would have had a different title though ;)
