Great shot, perfect "category", love the treatment of the shot. For me, the blown-out background really adds to the shot. You could "read" a lot into that!

Pretty. Excellent greeting card, I would buy it. I like the soft touch. The highlights look more blown out than fading to white, but that doesn't bother me much.

Good perspective but the photo seems to be a bit blurry.

This is a very fine architectural art and mood shot. Great colours, and the off centre adds to the great feel of it. Perspective is tenuous, but good shot

Due to the site being terribly slow for me right now, the comments and score came up and I saw all the positive comments. The score doesn't really reflect those comments, so I was all excited to be the commenter that got to really pick this apart. Then the image came up, and I really can't see much that I would change about it at all.
I love the DOF, focus is great and right where it needs to be.
The tones and color are great. This photo really creates a mood. A dark saddened mood, and due to the content of the photo, I feel that is appropriate.
The lighting is great, although I think my only nit pick with the photo would be that I wish I could see the part between From and for. It says Love From --- (maybe 'me'?) for chris (missing the s).
Not sure how you could have made it any clearer without compromising the mood of the photo, so really a well done shot.
I like the angle and framing/cropping you chose as well.
Overall a great image, lots of mood, technically well done. Definately fits the challenge.
