Hello from the Critique Club!

My first impression is that color treatment does not work here. If you were going for an antique photo look, then maybe a bit more orange and less red would have helped. Otherwise, I think it would have come out nicely as a simple B&W with no tinting.

This photo does have a spooky feel too it which helps draw interest. You also did a great job on your composition, keeping the light over the door behind the column was a good idea.

This shot meets the challenge well. It is refreshing to see that the person is actually hidden instead of so small he is hard to notice.

I think what kept this entry from scoring higher is that there is not much wow factor. Wow factor is really important if you want to capture someone's attention when they are voting. Otherwise they will give you a 5 and move on.

Nice placement of the path - too bad the sky is a little burnt

I would have cropped out the manhole which is a distraction 6

I haven't seen many shots of this viewpoint. I think you did well. Not the easiest lighting to deal with.

interesting but, too much shadow that to me really doesn't add to the shot

Interesting locale. Could use a figure in the shadows or something that would indicate a presence nearby.

This photo has very interesting composition and lighting. I like the use of time travel as a subject. The different colored light gives the photo more depth and feeling. Great Job!

Most of the image is much too dark. It would be interesting to see this as two merged exposures, cause the sky looks great.
