First Impression - the most important one: Wow! This shot really is striking and I can't believe it didn't place higher!

Composition: Composition looks great to me! Plenty going on, plenty to keep the attention of the viewer. I like the angle and perspective--seems right at eye level, as if the viewer was walking down the street themselves.

Subject: Great choice for the City Life challenge...most definitely fits the topic. I love that there's some motion blur, showing the hustle and bustle of the city. Just the right mixture of bright colors and corporate greys (which almost defines cities to me!).

Technical (Colour, focus, and light): Colors look great! They look true to life, but they pop right out of the photo and grab your attention. Focus seems spot on in this shot, good job!

To grow its vote?: Honestly...like I said..I'm not truly sure why this didn't score higher. The fellow with his back to the camera may have hurt the image some. But I think that the way the photo is has a nice photojournalistic feel to it--very slice of life, and I like it!

Summary: Great job on this shot, all around. I think if you keep at this, you're going to be very happy with your results! This, in my opinion (and I hope yours too!), is a shot you can really be proud of.

Nice city feeling, one of the few so far that tried to capture it's "bustle". You seem to have gone out of your way to oversharpen the 2 women. I would have left them blurry to strengthen your theme of busyness.

Greetings from the Critique Club

I was given this beautiful shot to critique... Well I do not know where to begin. You scored very well (81'st)but lets see if I can recommend some things that might help this to score better.

1st thing that I see is the heavy reflection in the center and it is a bit distracting and my guess is that the voters took some points away for that.

2nd thing is that the shot don't really have anything that holds the viewers attention, shot does meet the challenge but needs something other then the nice colors to hold attention.

This shot was very creative and as you see from your comments was well done. Other then the above observations I cannot see anything more that could be improved here. By the way I really liked this shot and hope that you continue to share your creativity here...

Steve

Like the idea but kind of cluttered seeming and lacking focus
