What a festival of rust, corrosion and old paint.

Wonderful scale and I like the complementary colors... and lots of wear and tear, at least on the surface.

*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

Congratulations on your ribbon for a fascinating image that meets the challenge.

Very well seen and interpreted, this has a real Escher feel to it for me, it just feels however I look at it, it folds in on itself again, I love it. The image itself is very well executed, the exposure is spot on with great detail throughout. Like you, I would have been equally perplexed by the person in red, they are too close to the edge and looking out of frame which doesn't help either but for some curious reason it works well. Reds are always so dominant, your eye is always drawn to them perhaps its the unusual position of it within the frame that somehow goes against everything we know and probably adhere to too much. Thank you for the original and other version, by far, your interpretation here is also the best of them.

I'll be honest, I have already remarked on another flipped entry that I think the real challenge here was to create an upside down impression in camera and this would definitely have been my approach to the challenge but then that's probably why I've never ribboned! Well done, apologies for the delay, Sid.

A very interesting image that needs the title to fulfil the challenge.

What a fascinating image, similar to one of your commenters, I am not that enthusiastic about infra red for the sake of it but this is one of those rare captures that the infra red really is adding another special quality to the image. Though there are no challenge details the feeling of the 'the end' is implied through your title. There is a great range of tones with good detail throughout, the path takes us to the doorway and the gorgeous light beyond, I like the inclusion of the figures and purposeful walk of the front person. I am a fence sitter regarding the crop, I quite like the top because the wall has some interesting shapes and the tops of the trees add to the feeling of space, but I can also see why the crop appeals as well, I like both.

The shadows and the ephemeral glow from the foliage is what makes this image work for me they are very appealing, it really does need the IR to make it work in this way. Congratulations on your high placing it has been a real pleasure to look at this image, thank you, Sid
