Manchester Eye

I like the framing and the star effect on the light sources works well for this shot. Without the title it's a little confusing whether the ride or bus of the centre of interest (or maybe even the green traffic light), but it's quite a good shot.

Life on the Streets

Good work - it's a good black+white shot, somewhat similar to what I originally planned to take. The composition and angles is a little awkward but I wouldn't say that's a bad thing for this photo, and it definitely has the feel of a person walking by looking down. Good work.

Pushed to the City Limit

That's a really nice interesting shot. It shows City and it shows Life. I live on the very outskirts of a large city (although much further from the centre than that shot). I like the use of black+white - it simplifies the photo and let's the viewer focus on shapes and lines and textures.

Taxi

I like the colours in this shot and the people's expressions. Also the composition and general technical quality is quite good. Well done. Most of all though, I love what appears to be a giant Mercedes-Benz logo... What a classy taxi!

New Year's Day in Philadelphia
by Kelli

Comment:
It's a very colourful, exciting shot. Personally I would have cropped differently though - either moving Wendy (is that the characters name?) off-centre or perhaps including more of the crowd watching. Have a look around for "Rules of Thirds" and try placing the characters eye in a thirds-corner... See if it works for this shot or not. Other than that, well done.

Make a Wish

It's a good shot, but I don't see a strong tie to the challenge subject. Also, the hands are too close to her eye and are a little distracting. I really like the colour and warmth of the shot though and it has an interesting crop.

Silver Elvis

What a cool guy. I'm assuming it's a painted artist that sometimes moves a little. Personally I would have focused more on the person - if not for the title I almost would have missed him hiding there in the corner. As it was it was a pleasant surprise to see him there. Good work.

Security in the city

RACV... Hmm, another local. I've already seen two other Melbourne photos (well, one of them is mine). It's kind of sad I can identify the purpose of most of those keys. This is a different approach to the subject and relatively well done.

Hitting the City

Interesting colorisation (I'm assuming), although I'm not sure what it adds to the image. I travel to the city every day by train, so I understand how it becomes a part of life.

New Haven Docks, 1932
by gloda

Comment:
1932 you say... Well that's surely outside the submission timeframe. :-) Good composition, good sepia and the grain effect is ok as well. It's good that his attire is appropriate to the timeframe you suggest. I like this shot - good portrait.
