I am having difficulty with this image representing celebration.
The wide perspective crop on this is fine, but the way the curved roofline come in & out of the picture is distracting. It appears this was a small part of an original image due to the lack of detail, unless a bit too much noise reduction was used. (4)

too far away to focus on anything.

For me, the main focus of this photo is the large banner, which unfortunately is blocked partially by the white cylindrical object in the foreground - which is distracting to me. I wonder how this would have been if you were closer to some of the people feasting? Also, be sure to try and utilize the maximum or as close to the alotted 640 pixels as stated in the challenge rules. Larger photos can sometimes have a better impact on voters :)

Interesting picture, Lots of stuff going on in here. With such a wide shot, it is hard to see how the people are enjoying it.

i think this shot could have done better if we could see the 'celebration' more clearly, rather than inferring it from the title. since the major elements are structural, the uneven lines are a bit distracting. a closer shot, straight-on shot might have had more impact. good luck in the challenge!

This image IMHO is blah! There's really nothing to peak the interest here. I gave you a 4 simply due to the fact that this just looks like it's just a snapshot as you were passing by. I don't mean to sound mean but evaluate your image again and ask yourself, \"What is the celebration in this image?\".

This is the most perfect example of a natural personification in this whole challenge! It's awesome, and perfectly shot! Easy 10!

The crop is a bit too tight in my mind. Otherwise, nice find.
