 I took this picture on a walk. It might not do well, I'm not sure how well it really fits the challenge, but I thought it was different from the normal take on the challenge.

Nice, but I see lots of compression artifacts in the sky and around the high contrast edges. Your file size of only 53k indicates a highly compressed image and that is what is robbing a lot of the detail and sharpness from this image. Check your compression settings when you save your file. Always adjust JPEG compression so that your file size is as large as possible, but within the challenge limit. (150k for this one)

As shoehorns go, this one just doesn't grab me.

Interesting take but the composition is a tad awkward and a little boring in subject matter
