I wish the metro were clearer, it took me a little while before I realised what it was. Great sunset and building. 6

Small Town Courthouse

Comment:
Way too much sharpening, you can see artifacting all around the building. Nice architecture. Composition doesn't strike me as very imaginative though. 5

Interesting shot, but the spelling makes me doubt whether I should take the photographer seriously. Shame about the burnt out highlights. Good composition. 6

Very overexposed, you've lost loads of detail in the highlights. 4

Very imaginative title! Great shot, tricky to expose for and you managed very well. Effective composition. Nice use of duotone. I like the textures. 8

Shame about the purple fringing which is beyond your control. The wonky tower is though... why didn't you correct it? The picture is underexposed (look at the clock), and I think the composition needs to be a lot more imaginative. 4

In Flight

Wow, fantastic use of complementary colours. Great study in contrasts. Shame about the bird that's been cut in half by the spire. An unusual take on the challenge. 8

Kemp Street, Brighton, UK

There are so many rows of coloured houses like this in Brighton that I can't help feeling there must have been a better picture somewhere. I'd have tried to find a shot without cars. The building in the top right really doesn't look good. Great idea though. 5

Urban Sunset
by eikidigi

Comment:
A very nice moody shot in duotone. Great choice of colour. 2 things bother me quite a lot here though.
1: A horizon running halfway through the frame rarely works, and it doesn't here... it looks unimaginative.
2: I really can't stand that border. I've never seen one of these borders that enhance a picture and just can't understand why people keep using them.
Score: 6
Score with above issues addressed: Probably 8

BCE Place, Toronto

This picture has a lot of potential, but the orange colour cast as a result of the wrong white balance really spoils it here. This is an amazing building... did you consider shooting in portrait orientation? This would have emphasised the height as opposed to the width. There is just enough floor to let us know it's there, but I find this a bit annoying... if the floor should be in the shot, then I think more needs to be made of it. There are so many great geometric shapes here, that I personally would have made more of them, going for a little more of an arty, abstract look than a snapshot, which is what this one looks like. 5
