Photographer’s Notes{/u]
I had a meeting today in my attorney’s office. I was stunned by the view I am paying for. At least if you all enjoy it, I’ll be getting my money’s worth!

My thoughts on the image: Great view, and I do like the overall feel of your post-processing. It really gives this one a grunge-type feel, fitting now knowing that your there in Seattle.
My ideas for improvement: I'd like to see a little more crispness, but, other than that, I really have no ideas to drastically improve the image. Perhaps outside of this particular challenge, I'd like to see the ledge removed. However, it really provides me with a sense that this was captured through a window, rather than from outside.
Where I would have/did score this entry: I think that the voters pegged this one appropriately. I did not vote on this one, as I am not currently wearing a blue shirt, but it would have pulled a 6, possibly a 7 from me. Nice work, and holy sh!t that's expensive.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric
Your editing is AMAZING!!!.... part of me wantes to complain about that edge on the bottom left... BUT that ledge helps your shot fit the challenge... and, well it's clearly shot through a window... please post some editing steps =)
