Exquisite detail......seems almost too pretty to fit the challenge wholly. The softening kind of softens the decayed effect as well. Nonetheless, a fine image......7
Not a bad composition and I can see how it would appeal to hdr fans. For my personal taste it is a little much. I love the flow of the composition though and the color scheme.
this image is strong enough to stand on its own. I find myself being distracted by the serious amount of pp done here and yes, would have voted higher.
Hmm, kinda over-the-top processing for me. Looks like there was quite a bit of random dodging and burning all over the place which left halos around most of the higher contrast areas. Also says "rural" to me, and not so much "urban." No vote, I'm in this one.
