Not sure why the "inspirational shot" scored so much better than this one. I much prefer the warmth in your shot. The other seems to have an overall cold blue tinge. The other one is a bit crisper and has a nicer sky -- the little cloud in your shot is a bit of a distraction. But I really like the texture and detail in yours. I also think the voters in 2002 were kinder than they are now. Interesting that that photographer only entered two challenges and hasn't participated in any way since 2002.

Nice perspective. Well spotted entry. Composition is more interesting than the standard straight up. Nice.
