This looks sooo interesting but I can't quite get a handle on what's going on. I guess those are clouds? Maybe consider some noise reduction and ease off a little bit on the saturation.

Actually, I live down the street from Tranquility Church. I like your scene and the subtle coloration.

Ultra low key but I like the contrasts.

Portland After Dark

Comment:
Ouchy but I kinda like it. Might crop a bit off the bottom? Portland never looked like this when I was there ;-)

Beautfil starling... nice shot, but lost any definition in background to compare focus.

...to my heart

This is a cool idea and no way would I want it to be a jewelry commercial. I love the shadow of the necklace and the way the heart falls dead center of the hand's shadow. I have half a mind to crop the real hand out of it and just have the shadow hand there - a move that is guaranteed to irk some other subset of voters, I'm sure. Bleh. Chalk this up to bad timing. The past few challenges seem to have been filled with nastyass 1-3 voters. Dorks.

... an entrance in ruins ...

Sheesh. There's nothing wrong with your photograph. I think there must be some hex on the sad, crumbly foundations of destroyed homes. There's one near us that I try shooting in all sorts of light and no matter what I do, it never looks as interesting in 2D. That said, I bet that if this had been an advanced challenge, you would have been able to apply some funky processing to increase the curb appeal :)

Well, on the bright side, it wasn't your house!

Very cool idea. Love the symmetry and abstractness. Smooth execution.
