Dumpsters & Litter

Focusing on either (1) the drain and surrounding bricks or (2) the blocked fire exit might have resulted in some interesting images. But as currently presented this isn't a particularly interesting scene.

I find the background a little distracting. I don't normally care for selective desaturation, but I think that it works fairly well here. The lemons look almost peach colored; hue shifting them a bit closer to true yellow would have given this more of a kick.

I would have preferred to have a slightly wider DoF.

This looks over-processed; I would have preferred straight sepia and perhaps a little bit of noise.

The title is quite a stretch. The border detracts from the image. This would be a stronger photograph if there was a clear subject; sunrises are so common that they lack impact without something to fixate on.

The white powder is overexposed, and the rest of the image is underexposed. Better light would do a lot for this image.

The direction that your model is facing makes this image feel unbalanced. I'd rather see this framed to place him on the other side of the frame of have him turn and face the other direction.

The title seems like a real stretch; I suspect that this would score much higher if the title didn't work against you. The fact that the cells in the grid aren't completely square is accentuated by the way you've cropped the image. Even if the windows really aren't rectangular I think that using perspective correction to make them so would have resulted in a more pleasing image. This is one of my favorite images in the challenge so far.

Nicely done; the reflection adds a lot to the image.

Door & Light

It may just be the lack of context, but this image appears to have quite a bit of barrel distortion. The only substantial features in the image are the top edge of the door and the handle, and somehow their impact seems to be negated rather than accentuated by the emptiness which dominates the rest of the image. I can't identify anything that causes the minimalism to not work here, but I think that it would work better if the two features were closer together, reducing the amount of negative space which they have to offset.
