It almost looks like a person with the lower limbs as legs. But the "1" isn't strong enough I think.

I don't see a number, do you? It is just a little too dark for me.

I get it! Nice. I'm a musician and I wasn't even thinking about this bridge. Good job.

Initial thoughts
Interesting composition, beautiful shot, color could be either more or less saturated.

Composition/ Content
The biggest thing I notice is the fact that the shot is very "middle ground" on the color scale. It is almost grayscale or black and white. It seems that either more color or a true B & W may have worked better. I like the way the flowers complement the razor wire, good eye there to see it.

Background
Once again, the color thing. A blue sky would have been so nice here in the background. A true B & W wouldn't have made it necessary.

Camera Work - Technical
Focus seems excellent especially on the wire. The wire does feel like it is moving down a bit to the right but I think that is actually the barbed wire under it. A tough decision there.

Digital Processing - Technical
The only things I might have changed is to possibly crop it up just a little on the bottom, and I would have used a darker border. Just my opinion.

Fits The Challenge
Fits the challenge but a bit of a stretch. I think the flowers kind of overpower the wire with a "Good over Evil" kind of message and that probably hurt your score some.

My Opinion On The Photo
I originally scored this shot a seven which is on the high side of your scores. I think that it meets the challenge but could understand how everyone didn't get it. Good job, and keep up the good work.


I would be happy to talk further about this shot if you would like to contact me.

after voting on all the images, I noticed that this is the exact same subject as "humpty dumpty sat in a cell" right down to the colored blocks = P
I would have preferred a smaller aperture to get the bars in focus as well as the egg. Also, the color balance seems rather warm.
