Oasis

The contrast of the bright nearby buildings to the darkened city in the background is well done. I am guessing this is what you mean by "Oasis" - an oasis in the night.

That's an awkward angle you chose for the shot - kind of implies you don't particularly like city life. If that was your intention then well done. There isn't a particular focal point though, so it doesn't hold your attention for long.

Probably the nicest long-exposure in the challenge. Lovely rich colours, nice flowing lines that all converge together and the star effect on the streetlights really adds a nice sparkle to the shot. Great work!

Traffic From A High-Rise

Such a common view in cities like New York. The image doesn't make a particular statement about the traffic though. What were you hoping the image would express?

Interesting shot. Are they pernament statues at this location? The title is very good.

Manchester Eye

I like the framing and the star effect on the light sources works well for this shot. Without the title it's a little confusing whether the ride or bus of the centre of interest (or maybe even the green traffic light), but it's quite a good shot.

Life on the Streets

Good work - it's a good black+white shot, somewhat similar to what I originally planned to take. The composition and angles is a little awkward but I wouldn't say that's a bad thing for this photo, and it definitely has the feel of a person walking by looking down. Good work.

Pushed to the City Limit

That's a really nice interesting shot. It shows City and it shows Life. I live on the very outskirts of a large city (although much further from the centre than that shot). I like the use of black+white - it simplifies the photo and let's the viewer focus on shapes and lines and textures.

Taxi

I like the colours in this shot and the people's expressions. Also the composition and general technical quality is quite good. Well done. Most of all though, I love what appears to be a giant Mercedes-Benz logo... What a classy taxi!

New Year's Day in Philadelphia

It's a very colourful, exciting shot. Personally I would have cropped differently though - either moving Wendy (is that the characters name?) off-centre or perhaps including more of the crowd watching. Have a look around for "Rules of Thirds" and try placing the characters eye in a thirds-corner... See if it works for this shot or not. Other than that, well done.
