Beautiful decadence. I was your 8. I knocked off a point for the border because it didn't seem to contribute to the sorditity. Great royal colors.

rural? decay? Neither are displayed in the image, I think that will hurt your score.

So ... the urban/suburban invasion *is* the decay? Interesting take on the challenge.

First thing I thought of was "This is not rural"! You expected that, or course. Then I realized that by becoming a city, the rural area it once was had gone away. I will admit the title helped me to make the connection. I find the image itself to be about average for DPC, however you deserve kudos for a very creative OOTB angle on the topic. Hope you don't get creamed with too many DNMC votes.
