I wonder how many people walked right past this and never even saw it. Great image.

I really can't believe that this only just scraped a 6. Sure the angle has probably cost a few points, but really. My suspicion is that simply because it looks so photoshopped (and I mean very skillfully photoshopped) ... but that vote curve is pretty evenly centred around the 6 point. I think you have perhaps suffered from the fact that this was an advanced editing challenge.

Pretty cool. I'd rotate it slightly as the lamp looks crooked.

Interesting shot, but the light standard is leaning a bit to the left. Needs a bit of image rotation to correct.

My first impression on this picture was UNREAL. Is this a photoshop work or what?

Henry, I've come back to this several times since the challenge ended, to see if my first impressions would last. They did. It is a very sympathetic examination of these beautiful steps. True, it might have been rotated a couple of degrees clockwise (maybe), although I can't agree that there should be less foreground. But all that's irrelevant nit-picking; it is actually a superb photograph with pretty much perfect tonal values, and a composition so good and yet so subtle that you don't notice it. Like many memorable things in life, it's even better than it seemed at first glance.
