Good job Becky on your top 50 finish! I didn't get around to commenting on this during the challenge; I gave you an 8 during voting though. ;-) I love the sepia tones here, and the lines that you captured draw your eye into the shot. Sun rise is a tad burned out.

4 - Again the quandry, but it's a game and there are rules/guidelines. Definitely a 7 with just the year. And yes, a photo of this put into a time capsule would depict this era for future generations. I like the sepia(?), especially to tie in with the year/era, but I still wonder how well the color would have worked, especially as it likely brought the mountains into play more. edit:typos

This is a great composition and a wonderful idea for this challenge. My suggestion (and keep in mind I'm only learning about B&W/Sepia myself) would be to have something almost pitch black and something as white as it comes. With two-tone images, anything with both of these will add a lot to your score - and to the overall image.

This is awesome in it's simplicity! I love it. I had to look at it a couple of minutes to figure out how ya did it! Great lighting. The only thing I would change and it's subtle is to maybe use levels to even out the white board a tad...
Kudos
