I liked the simplicity of this. The steel blue was a wonderful contrast to the golden background.

I like the simplicity of this. I try not to compare with the likes of an intense sunset or black and white portrait. This is really nice. It has commercial appeal.

Lose the strong near vertical piece and this would jump at least one point in scoring. Great concept - love the simplicity. Good luck!

I didn't vote in this challenge, but I also can't believe that it scored so low. Nice one. Oh and 'grats on the Golden Bear award.

Comment by Bear_Music:
Geeze, I can't believe this image got so utterly hammered, holy smokes! I'm the one that gave you your lone 10, and I can't understand how this image failed to move at least a few more viewers. The sense of stark, surreal immediacy, the inarticulate *foreboding* of the image, are just remarkable. But evidently I'm way out of tune with the rest of the voters on this one, and you know, I don't care! I'm making you the second-ever winner of the Golden Bear award :-)
