This must be yours Steve. Front page potential I'm sure. Wonderful split toning. I wonder if you're gonna have issues if you show the before and after shots :)

Easy pick for the blue. Congrats. I wonder if the yellow would be more suitable for the challenge owing to the colour similarities :-)
Wonderful shot. Congrats.

Fascinating image. I think I just gave it a quick 6. Would have given it more if I had considered it longer.
I think the left hand side of the image is a bit distracting (from very dark to very bright) and if I was taking the shot I'd've probably hit it with a bit multiple exposures to get some detail there. Still, maybe the contrast between the colour and black and white complements the depth of the image.
It's really nice. I think it should have seen the higher side of 5.5
