Focus is off. The lines should be the focus not the currency, right?

Not to pick nits here, but THAT'S SOMEWHERE! I grew up 15 minutes from Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

You've created an interesting melancholy mood here. Model could be a bit better focused.

oooo Greeting from the Critique Club oooo

Challenge
- Relevant to the Challenge? Yes, but aesthetically it leaves me wanting more.
- Is subject unique (vs. unoriginal or rehashed)? Most definitely.

Compostion
- Good or Bad? How can it be fixed? There are two things that draw attention away from the subject (smoke stack) the pipes and mechanicals below the stack and the water tower on the edge of the image. Any time you have a complex pattern (pipes) or an object on an edge it' will draw the attention away from your subject. Simplify your composition here. Rotate your stack to be verticle.
- Good use of Depth of Field? Yes
- Good focus? Yes

Lighting
- Good use of light? Yes. I like the light rounding the edge of the stack.

Aesthetics/Artistic Appeal:
- Colors and ContrastI like the red of the bricks, but the sky looks odd (maybe it's just my monitor.)
- Sharpness. Good.
- What is my reaction or feelings? I think this would have done better in the Industrial Challenge than Architecture. With some work it could be a great image.

Challenge
- Relevant to the Challenge? Hard not to be in this one. ;)

Compostion
- Good or Bad? How can it be fixed? I don't understand why you chose to rotate the image. I might understand if the sign weren't there, but it is and ruins the flow of the building. On or the other needs to change. No Rotate or no Sign.
- Is there anything missing?
- Good use of Depth of Field? Yes. This requires a wide DOF which looks good.
- Good focus? Yes

Lighting
- Good use of light? Yes & No. I like to see more of the shadows, but the design of the building overhang might not allow for thme in that area. I love the shape of the shadows in the bottom portion.

Aesthetics/Artistic Appeal:
- Colors and Contrast. The sky has a funny tealish tint to it and seems oversaturated.
- What is my reaction or feelings? I'd like to see this on re-shot without the sign. If you do go take a ladder with you to get the weight you need toshoot over the sign...

Needs a little more contrast in the tips of the ears. The outline is TOO faint. (Yes my monitor is calibrated...)

Great image, but I'm having difficulty believing that this is a single artificial light (the catchlights in her eyes are oddly shaped and the quantity of light).

I doubt this is ARTIFICIAL light. Great shot.

Clock Tower [high key]
by SDW

Comment:
This is NOT high-key. This is high contrast. Open this in your editing software and you'll see a U shaped histogram with spikes on the left and right edges. High-key and low-key are possible do to a lack of contrast.

A high key image has most of it's color dat in the right-most 20% of the graph. You can do this by Using the Hue/Saturation/Lightness dialog to Lighten or push to color data to the right.

Nice image. Good contrast.
