This is cool, but it's out of focus. The rocks are out of focus. Anyhow, good eye. I definitely see the 'v'.

Excellent use of light has made this a stand out image, just you hate the plaques they certainly mar the photos 10

The challenge to me or at least in my opinion is about abandoned buildings not ruins so in my opinion I don't feel that this fits the challenge. It is a well composed shot with excellent color and clarity with an excellent view. Good luck in this challenge.

Congrats on top ten. This was not a pic that I had rated on first glance (shows what I know!) - but grows on me with reflection. Feels slightly off balance (about 3 degrees CW rotate required to even out water flow in top RHS). High contrast important for the "V", but maybe slightly too strong for the pretty picture effect.

Personally, I almost always vote a border slightly down unless it works really well (in which case no conscious improvement or deduction to my vote) - I like to judge the image and the 1 pixel black border is usually enough for me. Think that there are more voters like me - not sure if we outvote the border-lovers or not...!
