IMHO This has left the realm of photography and has entered the world of Digital Art. My vote against the new rules set...

Way overprocessed... Violates the spirit of the rules in that you used two exposures. I know you did it in camera but IMHO it shouldn't be allowed. My 2 cents worth... Take it as you will.

Immobility's Relentless Nemesis
by jjbeguin

Comment:
Not exactly what I would call a harsh environment. Wonder why it didn't get towed... There are a couple of what look like dust spots on the windshield that I would have cloned out to give it a more solid black but that's just me.

Farm House in a Barren Land
by candlerain

Comment:
Looks a bit oversaturated but not horribly so. Just enough to make the ground look odd against the blown out sky. I think I would have cloned out the little car next to the house to give it a little more of a deserted feel but that's just me.

Deadly Forest

Comment:
Harsh environment indeed but not really an interesting shot. Nothing to really hold the viewers attention. I think your choice of border color is also a little distracting. I think a darker gray or pure black would have added more to the moodiness...

Rude Awakening...

Comment:
Very simple shot. Nice bokey. Looks a little too blue for some reason but I don't know what time of day it was shot or the background. Just 'looks' too blue...

Very fitting shot for the challenge. Harsh environment indeed both physically and emotionally.

Guts

Comment:
This is one of those shots that I can't wait to see how it was processed. Did you use HDR? I am a little confused by what appears to be a desaturated sky but a color reflection in the window. Nice entry for the challenge.

Chanukah Lights

Comment:
I guess it's just not much of a pattern... Or an interesting shot even. You say it's Chanukah candles... Why didn't you include the holder? That probably would have helped...

Industrial archaeology

Comment:
Your colors are a little too vivid. I'm assuming that this is from your use of HDR. This is really apparent in the sky. You also have a bit of noise in the sky which doesn't help out any. But the biggest thing I see in this shot is that it's just not too interesting. Nothing here to hold my attention for more than a second.
