Boarded Up

Interesting artistic interpretation to the challenge with the artwork on the boarded-up window. A bit on the contrasty side and a slightly lower point of view (shooting angle) woud have helped the lower boards be a bit more horizontal. (4)

Forest Ambush

Though meeting the challenge, the toning & selective desaturation & re-toning don't work for me in this shot. Looks kind of like PS gone mad! (please don't take that personally - not meant to offend and apologize if it comes across that way)
A clean B&W conversion with a little more sharpness woud have helped. Still, meeting the challenge, I gave you a 4.

I'm such a sucker for B&W's.
Nicely done!

I wondered if someone was going to do a shot like this and you didn't disappoint me.
Nice thinking outside the box on this one.

The old Flour Mill.

Comment:
Not sure this composition works for me.
Foreground is very harsh/bright, not resembling anything to do with flour, and the background creates an second focal point that competes too much. Perhaps if it were in B&W it may be better.

Is This Abandoned?

Not sure the toning works in this shot. The main subject is a bit too centered and also blurry/out of focus. Having a ? mark in the title doesn't help in my opinion, but it's only a title and took nothing away because of it.

Stairway to Broken Memories

Comment:
Unique and very different image in this challenge.
Some points clear, some points have motion blur. (Lensbaby?)
There is a certain amount of harness here, perhaps the shadows (flash?) on the stairway kind of throw this one in a conflict visually for me.

Barn and blue (plastic)

Comment:
Nice tone and detail on the rough lumber on the left, but background is really fighting with the angles between the horizon and the open roofing structure.

Buzzard Mansion

Comment:
A lot of potential here. Here are a few things I see wrong that hurt this image.
Detail is low, lacking sharpness. Image is a bit too bright. Attention seems to be drawn more to the trees than the building - perhaps a different point of view would help this more.

Composition is good, but the toning & small image size (500x338) hurt this shot's potential in my opinion.
