How many takes did this need?! Impressive co-ordination, and impressive use of high speed flash.

Saw your 'what could I have done' in one of the forum threads. I personally believe thta this was a photo that was undervalued by the voters as a whole. here is why a gave it an 8:

Clearly meets the challenge.
Good exposure.
Super colour - well saturated blues, but natural looking.
Intersting subject.
Excellent composition. It ws the composition that took the photo up to an 8 for me - strong leading lines taking me up the scaffolding and back down the other side; superbly balanced, with the two men standing on either side; really good use of triangles. The only thing I might have changed would have been to include very slightly less foreground, but then you would have lost one of the lead-in lines, so may-be not!

I don't understand the title, nor the photos relevance to the challenge, BUT I really like this. It is one of those photos that even though the viewer may not nderstand the author's intent, you can invent your own narrative for the picture. I'm not being very articulate here, but I am trying to say that is a winner for me!

Hee, I like it!Well composed, although I might prefer batman tio be standing a little forward of the wall and staircase. The B&W tonal range is a little on the dark side - for minimal editing I wonder if it would have been stronger photographed in colour?

Along with many others in this challenge, this seems to be a bit of a shoe-horn in, but perhaps papers in other parts of the world publish different stories and pictures to those I read. The photo itself is well composed, but I find the heavy colour-caste off-putting.

Along with many others in this challenge, this seems to be a bit of a shoe-horn in. That said, given Minimal editing, you have got a well composed urban landscape with some good depth.
