Excellent framing of Empire State Building which seems to disappear into a heavenly light. I would have preferred though that you would have used photoshop to make the lines near the left and right edges vertical. I feel like I am looking at the leaning tower of manhattan oon the right. Additional lighting on this side of the erector set would also help. Large expanses are only in silhouette.

The underexposure of the structure loses its impact as a rusted main subject, I am drawn to the building in the back.
I love the photo, but docked a few points because the building in center came off as the subject to me, not the actual rusted object which was kind of what the challenge was about. =)

Nice with a different composition. Too bad about the fog/smog/whatever that makes the building faded. Would have been a nice one in the silhouettes challenge too.
A fellow Clevelander. Great shot, nicely framed and nice contrast. It's a shame the foreground shadows hide the details of the rust. I imagine you'll receive comments to that effect. 7
