Really surprised me that this came in sub-5. I gave it an 8. I think I know what the problem was, however. When I was voting on this, my wife came into the room and mentioned how wonderful this shot was, and asked who did it. My wife liking your entry is the kiss of mediocrity. Sorry.
Composition: 7
Technical: 7
Creativity: 8
Appeal: 8
Challenge: 1 - WEAK!! Too bad. This would have done well in another challenge I think.
Overall Score: 3 - (weighted - NOT a calculated average)
I absolutely love this shot, but for how much people scrambled to find something 100 years old or older, I can't score it high. And since I won't score it low, I have to abstain. Beautifully done, though.
This is a nice shot, but I'm going to mark it down a few points because to me it doesn't meet challenge.
On the shot itself the colours and landscape are nice but you have a very centred horizon. If you got lower down and moved the horizon to the lower third it might have worked better.
