Congrats on your brown ribbon. You will get lots of views. I've had a few browns myself. Actually I like this. Nice composition. Might have done better in the duotone challenge.
Ouch. I gave it a 7, but I did not expect it to do too well overall. Better to go down in flames with the brown, though! There is a certain bizarre pride to achieving the brown. I am quite fond of mine. Congrats. I think.
This should have been a terrific image, but the choice of harsh coloring (which emphasizes the background 'noise'), the tilt of the elements, and the overall darkness just aren't working in the long run for me.
The processing really turns this into an abstract piece. The kind of thing that would take some time to begin to appreciate. Im glad I took the time to leave a comment, because it is growing on me. I fear that most voters would pass it over quickly though. 7 from me.
Wow, that's some heavy-handed processing. It certainly grabs one's attention. It works well as an abstract. I can't say I'm too fond of the yellow, but I really like the way the reddish-orange looks on the side of the building...pen-and-inky looking.
