Not compelling, rather disgusting, weird colors don't make the statement stronger, IMO. 1

Too dark and too small. I don't get "silence" from your image. I can't tell if the sidewalk ends at the trees in the backgound or keeps going because the picture is so dark. 2

The silence of waiting
by apetrik

Comment:
Huh? Weak connection to the theme at best; having the foreground so out of focus makes it hard to keep looking at the picture, and if it were me, I'd get a picture of the PEOPLE waiting in silence rather than the chess pieces. 2

Tranquility

The horizon is slanted, and the colors in the sky don't look natural. It's too hard to keep looking at this image and feel "silence" because of the colors. Sorry... keep trying! 2

Tall Flowers

Comment:
The foreground seems ot of focus. I guess this really is a very steep hill but it looks odd cropped this way. Maybe a closer shot of one of the flowers would be better? Anyway, what's this got to do with silence? 2

I wish I could talk

because I might say, "This picture isn't going to capture the theme!" Even with the title trying to make a connection, the picture is not terribly interesting. Sorry, I gave it a 2

After the Funeral...

I think you got "silence" in this image. At first I really loved it and I still like it, but now I'm bothered by the position of the chandelier. Maybe you could have cropped a bit lower, still getting most of the railing? I dunno. Maybe it's just me. Contrast seems like it could be stronger, too. Anyhoo, I did give this picture a 7.

Captured the theme beautifully. I like this photo; I like the repetition of the chairs and the floor / posts, the colors go together nicely. 7
