I really like this shot. It has a very professional, iconic, cinematic quality, obviously emphasized by the border treatment. I could easily see some green (or maybe not) energy company using it in a marketing campaign.

Absolutely gorgeous sunset and clouds. However there is too much water on the bottom of the frame for my taste. Did you consider any alternate crops? Perhaps putting the pier on the lower horizontal 1/3rd line? It might help put the focus on the details in the city/sky rather than the dark uninteresting water.

I really like the shot, though I have a hard time articulating why exactly. The ominous sky and singly illuminated house, with the rest of the street bathed in darkness. It makes me think of a somewhat bleak modern counterpoint to something out of Bill Ownen's Suburbia series (//www.billowens.com). It would be better without the light from what I assume is another lamp post down the street.. but not much you could do about it under basic rules I guess.

This is a terrific composition and a shot I think a lot of people never would have noticed. The choice of time of day adds the detail of lights both in the building and it's reflection. Much different than if taken earlier when the windows would be perfect mirrors. What really gets me is how each building seems to have an glow in the opposing buildings color. Fantastic.

However as much as I liked it I didn't vote it as high as I would otherwise since I don't really see it as a landscape.

Great title and shot. Something about the cloudless sky combined with the "island" of shadow around the tree... it feels like it would be a welcome respite from the heat.

I really liked the subject matter and the unique take on the urban landscape but didn't care for the shot itself. Did you consider any alternate crops or angles? I think I get what you were going for, but with it titled "croweded" there is just too much negative space from the sky in my opinion. Perhaps a tighter, maybe square crop of just the right side of the image might archive the claustrophobic effect better?

I really like the composition of this shot. An alternative title could have been "nonsyncope nonvertigo". This deceptively simple S curve photo with it's combination of tilted orientation and the angular receding walkway almost makes me dizzy. I also like how as my eye follows the pathway it doesn't just end but becomes increasingly obscured by the vegetation until it disappears.

I'm not a fan of borders in general but this is one of the rare shots I've seen were I think it works. Even so I think I would have preferred it in solid black (without the white lines).

This is a very cool shot. I like all the repeating patterns from the physical structures chimneys, bricks, roof, etc as well as the coloring combined with the overall low saturation and atypical aspect ratio.

Great shot. I like the natural framing created by the trees. My only criticism would be due to the patch of ground (grass?) in the lower right corner.
