Neat subject and repeated geometry. The ominous sky is also great. However, the lighting is very flat, so there's not a lot of variation in tone. Also, I might have cropped out more of the foreground, as it's not that interesting. Also, it seems like the image was maybe oversharpened?

Very ancient, advanced decay!!!!
But don't feel that this fits completely with the subject...
Very flat pic.
An angle shot would have more impact.

Ancient ruins shot for a decay challenge should be shot up closer, IMO. Being so far away it's hard to see the decay. No vote, I'm in this one.

"Urban"? Not so sure, but it's still an awesomely done shot.
