Very dramatic. I like the B & W. I think the moon is a little too bright though, or is that the sun? It is very hard to tell with the darkness. :)

It's interesting that it's the left hand that massages the wall with the rag, while the right hand is the scraping hand. I love her look of concentration.

The dark corners on the left are a bit distracting. But you've done a great job, better than many here, of actually showing an occupation. I like the movement in her left hand.

Good shot representing weather, but unfortunalty the moon has indeed been touched by man.

Good use of B&W. Overall picture looks pretty dark. This is probably hiding some very nice details.

Composition/Content - To me, the background is what sells this image, and what makes it worthy of the blue challenge. I think the composition is perfect as it is. Another image, from a different perspective could have been good too, but I would not flaw this image on compositional perspective. I also like the evolving shads of blue in the sky. My eye is drawn to the sky first, then the tree on the left, then the details in the middle ground, then the foreground.

Background - Again, the background makes this iamge what it is. Nuf said.

Camera Work - Technical - I disagree with the comment that the foreground needed to be brighter. As photographers we are all faced with the reality that some parts of our image will be in brighter light than others. We have to figure out the right balance for each image. In my opinion, you have done just fine with that. The tree on the left could quite possibly be sharpened, but I don't think this detracts from the image.

Digital Processing - Again, perhaps a little additional sharpness; perhaps not.

Opinion - I like it more as I look at it more. Now I noticed the pieces of mountain and valley bathed in sunlight. The photo has alot going for it. Congratulations.
