I love it. It looks computer generated but I'll trust that it is a real photo.

Graveyard 2

Comment:
I REALLY like this. It evokes the end of life very powerfully.

The brown tones suggest the autumn of the year--or the autumn of a life.

The long shadows suggest that it is late in the day, a feeling that is reinforced by the leafless branches.

We are headed towards the black tombstones. We cannot see them clearly, just as we cannot see how our own lives will end.

Industrial Revolution

I usually like industrial pictures. This one is nice but it doesn't quite make it. The wire across the middle is unfortunate--it splits the picture into two halves that don't come together for me. I like the top half. If you were to crop it (or zoom in) above the wire I think you would have a more powerful and dramatic image.

Don't you know the rule of thirds?

I'm glad you ignored it--this centered image is very nice. I love the tones.

Very nice. I tend not to like the strongly colored images but it works well for this one.

Very nice! At first I thought that being "upside down" added to the power of the image. After all, a shot from directly above doesn't really have a natural orientation and the way you put them helps say that they are drained and empty.

But the shot is actually not from directly above; you can see the bottom of one of the bottles. I rotated the image 180 degrees and found that it looks more natural.

In any case, I like it either way.

I really like this. I don't think the blue tone adds much, but I've decided to ignore that. Bumping up.
