I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

Nice color. I would like it better if you were to crop in and center attention on the main two tombstones in the front.

Awesome colors. The composition seems a bit random, but otherwise a great sho.

GREAT vibrancy of colours! Like the way it's such a simple series of colour blocks yet more than that too!

Comment by Artan:
Thanks to everyone for the comments, I was amazed at how well this did.

This tower is called Broadway Tower, and is in the Cotswolds in the UK sitting above a village called Broadway, and about 10 miles north of Stow-on-the-Wold.

It is a favourite place of mine, and judging by the entry in the Bored challenge, its someone else's favourite place as well.

The tower is 4 stories high, so the woman (she who must be obeyed) is well proportion for its height.

With this score I have met all the targets I set myself when I became a member.
If I achieved these I promised myself a camera upgrade, so its time to start thinking about new kit and new targets.

One thing that I am very proud about is that I now have the top score for the Point and Shoot - Canon Digital Ixus V3.

The irony is that in putting this image in the top position, I knocked one of my own out of 12 place (my bridge entry).

Again thanks for all the kind words... .

Ian

Among the better photos I've seen so far. I would have liked to see my side of the stones a bit more. As is, they are silhouettes which make a nice foreground/background composition, but leave me wanting a bit of detail on the stones.

Congratulations on your 8th finish with this "towering" image. perhaps the coolest image in the entire challenge.
