I would say this represents hope, not despair.

Church has an appropriately dark feel, though not quite "despair" . . .

I love city scapes, especially those at night that are well done, like this one. There may be too much space at the bottom, but it may be this monitor. Good work.

Nice color and composition. Would prefer a different color background.

Composition : Certainly an interesting perspective. I would have liked to see this with a few different rotations. My eye really wants to see one of the edges straight (top bottom or a side). But I like the effect you achieved here. I think the lack of an anchoring line might add to the dizzying effect.

Exposure / Lighting : As was pointed out already, it does seem a bit dark. While it works well as is for pure lines and geometry, I think a tad more brightness may have made it a stunning shot.

Focus : Focus is not an issue.

Post Processing : May have benefited from a touch more brightness.

Challenge / Wow : The challenge was certainly met here. A different rotation may (or may not) have helped give greater WoW. I feel strongly that a tad more brightness would have been an improvement.

That's rhythm! I wanted to do a flag photo myself but couldn't find a row of them like you did. The sky would have come out a lot better using a polarize filter for sure, but I don't have one of those myself yet. Next on my list of things to buy! A nice long crop here and you've made it look very windy. Good job!

I think it would have been better if the end of the tape was visible, rather than being off the left.

On an unrelated note, it looks odd to me to see a tape measure only in inches!
