I really like this, and the tourist do add quite a bit! Did you try cropping it in? When I scrolled down to enter this comment, I stopped when the sky disappeared and it just made me say "wow!!" The top part is so interesting, so I never would have thought about cropping it out, but when it scrolled off, the result was really interesting, I just had to share it.

Anyway, fun spot and wonderful capture!

Ok, I'm saying this a lot -- this should have scored much higher. I gave it a 7 -- I think it's wonderful! Great sign, fascinating connectors, ropes, etc. And if it's a lensbaby, it's one of the few that work for me. Very well done!

I loved this shot and gave it a 7. I'm surprised that it ended where it did. I thought it deserved to be much higher! Loved the lines!

I loved this one! There were so many different stories to see -- you can just keep looking and find more and more in the photo.

Isn't it weird going from an 8 to a 6.5? A bluebird shot from a series that received my highest-7.4 ended up at 6.6. I was happy with the 6.6, but it also made me very curious: was it because the voting was harsher? Was it because a lot of people don't care as much for the nature photography? It raised interesting questions.

Still love the shot, and this one's just as wonderful!

absolutely spectacular! Beautifully done! I hope you show the original on this one. I would love to know what was done in camera vs processing. What ever the path taken, you achieved spectacular results! -10-

I think this is truly spectacular! So far my favorite in the bunch. I hope you do remarkably well, and I can hardly wait to see who did this. -10- and I wish I could give it an 11!
