One of the two best photographs I've seen of the Brooklyn Bridge (the other is here too, by JPR). This one seems to beautifully convey the structural character of the bridge; the mixture of science and artistry that makes this fabulous structure work. Essential, sympathetic photograph. 8.

Full of energy
by Ragga2000

Comment:
Beautiful. There's some irresistible element of anthropomorphism about this building; it seems wilfully malevolent. Of course it's partly the brooding angle and partly the severe, deep-space-bronze processing, but the effect is absolutely striking. You have captured the building as an emotional presence rather than as a utilitarian construction. 10.

Welcome

Comment:
Oh, yes. It's everything except welcoming, isn't it? I deeply admire this sort of photograph; it's so much harder to find, capture and process than it looks. Architecture for masochists, maybe? Bravo. 9.

Water and Light

Comment:
This is in Lansing, I think? The almost cartoon-like level of colour saturation is effective here; it gives the building an energetic character and presence entirely consistent with its function. The chosen exposure has also transformed the water into a surreal baseboard for this lovely (art deco?) industrial building ... makes it look a bit like a model rather than the real structure. Clever & thoughtful work. 8.

It looks like the kind of photograph that the architect and his client would both happily pay you to take; very professional. 7.

Gotham

Comment:
One of the few occasions when this nouveau-gothic post processing treatment is justified. I think the architect would approve of what you've done. 7.

A Frank Gehry Masterpiece
by bvoi

Comment:
Unlike many Frank Gehry designs, this one doesn't look like it's caught in the act of falling down. This photograph is a very fine tribute because I imagine it depicts exactly what M. Gehry had in mind when he designed the building; soaring, concentrated, and just a little bit organic. And a celebration of form over function, of course. 7.

Land Line
by Germaine

Comment:
Such a good eye you have! This is charming and witty, as ever. It has five major elements and it would not work without any one of them. Plus it has many minor elements, every one of which contributes a pleasing if whimsical note or two to the performance. Bravo!

The cyclist

Comment:
I must disagree with The King; I think the slightly uncertain separation between sea and sky is a great counterpoint to the severe geometry of the middle ground .. another bold horizontal division would be just one too many. And the easy, undemanding swoosh of the foreground road is a lovely magic carpet to carry the viewer into the story. Terrific!

Storm coming

Comment:
Well, I wonder if the double rainbow would have acted as a bit of a brake on this? It's so complete as it is, that I really can't see how you could fit a double rainbow in without removing something else. Demolishing the barn, say? Nah ... this is just fine like this.
