nice opportunity, but could have used a better title (you know, something related to "abandoned"...)

utterly meets the challenge. i'm just not a fan of the eye-level perspective, nor the composition. just where do you want my eyes to go?

Left Behind

Comment:
other than a tenuous title, i would definitely call this a shoe-horn ;-)

nice idea for an image, but composition is a bit off-balance. i'd probably find a way to take out the island, either in camera or in post.

not sure about the title or perspective. looks like you're shooting down and am not sure what point you're trying to make with that.

nice graphic, but it's subtlety probably won't get the meeting-the-challenge votes...

nicely seen. could possibly have used just a bit more detail in the shadows, though, but that's subjective.

all the opportunity in the world, completely killed by post-processing...like a punch in the face

these are by no means perfect, but take a look to get an idea as to what i'm talking about in terms of opportunity. retired monster

Gone to Ruins

Comment:
in terms of meeting the challenge, yes, this is an abandoned building. but the processing just doesn't work for me. way too muddy. and other than the building being abandoned, there's no real subject for me to take interest. what do you want me to see that would keep me attention?

great find, great subject, but i think you missed the composition and processing. as is, being off-balanced and eye-level, it doesn't really hold my attention. i like the black and white, but it seems in some areas a bit muddy and over-sharpened in others.

Long Forgotten

Comment:
what a wonderful subject. not sure that the composition is working for me, though. the leading lines are quickly taking me out of the image, rather than through it. and they're leading me right into a serious glare. and the eye-level perspective is just a bit too pedestrian. maybe if you had shot it from the far right, and either higher or lower, you would have made a more compelling image.

love the colors, though.
