Very chistmas-y. It's not so tacky and I like the photo.

I kinda like the stained glass star x'mas tree combo. Does this mean I have tacky taste? It aint tacky but I like the shot. 7

Very pretty photo. Is this a lighted decoration on display outdoors or something smaller. The lack of scale makes me keep looking at it and in the process appreciating the variety of shades and details.

Would love to see whole building. Beautiful colors. Wish you hadn't cropped off the top of the one on the right. Still good one.

Great use of natural light, excellent focus and the color is crisp and appealing. I don't really see a connection to the challenge though. Broadly there's one church pictured, but I do not sense a feeling of solitude or loneliness. Technically, a fabulous picture - just misses the mood the challenge detailed for me. Still nice look. 7

Can't connect this with the challenge subject I'm afraid. Loneliness, solitude, ... it's an architectural portrait, though. Reasonable work - god colours, sharpness, but odd cropping, the perspective distortion is peculiar and has the feeling of not being wanted.
