I dislike the clouds, but love the angle.

Expensive shot then by all accounts :-) (bank accounts I mean)

Gorgeous. Might have liked a brighter face to the building and the various greens. but that may have taken away from the clouds. Great image! Maybe not late enough for most, but I love it! :-)

I guess I was the only one who preferred this one :-) I think it'll do well. I'd give it a 7 or 8. Might have suggested cloning out the dog though.
Really nice image!

One of the ways I judge images and vote is as follows: do I think the processing effect lends itself well to the image?

In this case the answer is no. I would have loved to have seen this with subtler processing with perhaps the liberal saturation boost that is here if that's what you're looking for. I think a strong sharp contrasted image would have scored much better.

However, this is just my opinion. I don't know what you were trying to achieve. If it was this you did it excellently. I really do like the perspective used here.

Hmm. I gave this an 8. Nearly 2 more than it deserved, apparently. Must vote lower next time.

:-) Just kidding. Nice image. Loved the background.

Well. Wow. This is incredible.
The gradient in the water. The depth of the image. The lighting of the front of the bridge. Its descent into darkness on the left. The soft haze of rainfall in the distance. The mocking sun-rays on the left. The fear the boaters must be facing. This is not a simple image. While I would have done some lens distortion correction to straighten the building on the left, I like the thought that it's shying away from the lightning.
Wherever this image ends up, it is in credible. Easiest 10 I've given in a long time.
