Congrats to both of you! Did I call the dancing banana? Turns out it wasn't premature! He resembles his father.

In my town, these toys have been outlawed for "safety" reasons. Cryin' shame.

Very nice! Congrats on this pic, it was perfect for the challenge and I like the way the sidewalk and trees open up to the wheel.

Hi from the Critique Club... Anything I say cannot be used agains me :)

First, I think you addressed and answered the reason your photo placed on the lower end of the scale. If the lights had been on then the score would have jumped several notches. DPC voters, myself included need slapped on the face to 'get it'.

Personally, I like the picture, its a very moody/dark sky and has a real feeling of desertion or emptiness. Not the normal view of a stadium. I like the receding view of the light standards.

Technically you did a good job. exposure is well controlled, BW is perfect for the subject, and composition/cropping is effective. No need to suggest change for change sake.

Sometimes out of the box works for high scores, mostly it doesn't. Just keep making pictures that you like. Oh, and posthumous gave you a 7 which is always a good thing!

I cant find all 4 objects. Still, a 5 for making dirt on a sucker look so good! ;)
