It's possible I suppose. Seems a bit tidy for something you'd really see when you close your eyes.

That's a very clear, crisp photo for something you'd see if you close your eyes. Fun looking puzzle.

This, I believe, is entered by none other than Rich himself! If not, kudo's to whoever this belongs to, definitely "In the Style of Streetpigeon".

Hmm. One of two top choices for being Rich's entry. I'm leaning towards one other however. This is well done in his style.

I'd like to say this is possibly Rich's entry, but the sharpening seems a bit more than his usual. The subject matter definitely fits!

Oh, I'm SO kicking myself! I have a pile of images from this location and totally forgot. Grr. So, yes, I like your take on this challenge. Nice capture. :-)

Hmm. Yeah, not quite what I envisioned. You're right, the voters would have probably torn this up. You are pretty good at these conversions though. :-)

Doing one's best to maintain the facade

This image takes a little time to absorb. There is so much to see once you fall into the frame and take in the surroundings. The image is so still and silent! Kind of like a look back in time, or a time in the future when there's noting left but the buildings and material things - no people to be seen. No cars, no bikes ... just concrete, steel, and remnants of some past.

A timeless piece in B&W. Well done.
