I wasn't going to enter this challenge because my 300D was in the repair shop for dust removal, but I was really tempted to shoot it with my Sony Mavica.
This was taken at my University, which has the most beautiful minarets I've ever seen. The whole building is a National Historic Landmark built in 1891.

This is beautiful. I gave it a ten because I like the focus, the color, the shape of the window (or should I say windows?) and the crescent moon in the top center. The only thing that bothers me is that the crescent is not competely dead center. Still this rates a 10.
I really like this, I think it's my fav of the challenge. I like the framing of the window, the unusual panes adds interest too. The view is great, and compositionally with foreground/background elements it really connects. The toning is great too. Not a thing I would change!
Nice shot, well composed. I wish the conical thing below the crescent was more centred though. Great exposure, especially the trees. This is what makes the shot so striking for me. I would have liked more sharpness, maybe with soft focus added after having sharpened.
This is a very interesting and compelling photograph. I love the tones of the view outdoors, but it's a bit dark and hard to tell what the structure is exactly. The silhouetted frame of the door/window is also very interesting. I think this is a special photograph.
Seems slightly tilted. I would have gotten rid of the light on the sides all together. The composition here is fantastic. You have a great eye. I don't care for the sepia in this image, it does nothing for me. 8
Reminiscent of something, though i can't recall what. Brian Harris perhaps. Love the tones around the curves of the minaret, particularly, and of course the framing of the crescent.
