Great capture. Could have lifted the colours a bit with levels or curves though. Very nice use of space too. [8]

Do you have PS? "Transform" would have helped those crooked buildings. Good catch of the rainbow.

The photo is alittle over exposed. I think if you play with brightness and contrast a little, you can generally fix a lot of that :)

I like this photo. My only suggestion is that the bottom left [stand] is a distraction. Maybe a tighter crop. Unusual subject and interesting to look at. Nice.

The graphic impact of this image is very fun. This collection of statues makes for a great composition. I don't know if you manipulated the colors or not, but I like the way it works here. It has the feel of a BW image, but the sepia-yellow tints add warmth. It also has great range from black in the background to the whites in the nearest bust. The highlights appear to be a little blown on the nearest, but I think that adds to the feel of the image. OVeral, lighting is very good. The only thing I would prefer changed in this image would be to crop out the marble statue bases at the bottom (or shoot from a slightly different angle to exclude them). Not a big deal, but the harsh geometric lines of the bases clash with the curves, forms , and textures of the statues (in my perception, anyway). I'm giving this image a 10 because it has WOW factor! Nice job and good luck in the challenge. I hope to see this shot do well.
