Simply... beautiul. I wouldn't change a thing. I predict a top three finish for you; this got my highest rating of the challenge, in a very good field.

Nice crisp contrasty image. I think it cold be improved with a more difffuse light source to soften the shadow.
I think you'll get plenty of questions as to how you did the ³ in the title!

Holy Fork!... uh, I mean, what a monstrous shadow!
I like your choice of composition, think I would have gone cooler on the colors, but that's just my first impression. One of my favorites this challenge, a very original and well-executed idea.

A techical standout. Perfect DoF, framing. Nice use of selective color. Would have worked well for simplicity as well, IMO

Terminal 1

A beautiful architectural abstract, one of my favorite images for this challenge. It could stand just a bit more saturation & contrast; try bringing in the white and black points just a bit in levels, and adjusting midtone pointer to right to increase contrast slightly. The resulting slightly darker, more saturated image seems to my eye a slight improvement on an already exceptional image.

What a fun image! Very nice capture of the spontaneity. Exposure is good, a bit blown out at upper right but does not detract IMO. Might make it difficult to get a great print, however.
The title runs on.(and on) and detracts somewhat from... the simplicity.
