You beat me by 3 places, darn it. Na, congrats. A very simple photo that captures the spirit of the challenge nicely. Love the colors, the uniform blurred background, and the perfect symmetry of the balls...right down to the stripes! I had you pegged for a higher score than this. Great capture.

Okay, I think you got robbed on the challenge. Liked this a lot. Lighting could have been a bit better, but you still should have placed much higher.

An interesting shot. What makes it interesting is the chain and lock. I actually did not notice it the first time, and took a bit to see it here this 2nd time. I think that is really the key to the shot. I think an 8x10 crop would have given it a bit more focus, taking the top off slightly. Other than that it is a well composed shot. I like the slight cruves in the pillars and the nice repeating patterns in the door. A simple composition that actually has more going on to it after a 2nd take.

Great ceiling, good opportunity. A tripod would really have improved this shot.

Great perspective. Wish we could see just a tiny bit more of the station/people in the lower right.
