I have a rotary phone, but not one that old -- nice. :-)

I love the phone!

I'd have gotten rid of the "chilton" in post processing... or moved the phone.

But, I can see how it adds a bit of "quirky" to the scene.

interesting use of selective desat. makes me think about ways to manipulate relationships between elements.

Comment by JakeKurdsjuk:
I like the idea of the symmetric reflection but there's just too much of it and it loses its effectiveness in the competition. You could probably crop in at multiple points within this shot and have something more interesting, but this is just OK.

Just not a fan of using selective saturation here.

I missed voting on this challenge, but I would have given this a 6. I think it was underrated as well.

Sorry for the delayed response (does spending the day at the dentist office count?) :-)

First reaction when this image loaded was the perceived tilt. Technically I don't believe it is; it's that angled tree line and the use of what I'm assuming is a wide-angle lens (trees converging in the center). The stars visible in the area below the opening, beyond the foreground trees, look sharp - the ones in the open area are showing some movement. Hard not to I know ... just saying. I'd have hovered between a 5 or 6 on this and probably hit the 5 and moved on.
