Shoulda used high contrast - might even have created impact in your picture...

No whites and no blacks. Not high contrast. I know that's pragmatic, or something, but even so this is way off the mark.

Apart from that it's a nice sky shot.

The End is the Beginning

There are very dark shadows and very light highlights, but everything that matters in this picture is in a wide range of middle tones. Thus it fails to be a high contrast photograph for me.

Good idea and it does contain black that's black and white that's white. You could have pushed it further (IMO) and it might even have come close to matching the title...

Through the Trees

I think the core of the picture - the barn etc - is all about the mid tones and thus detracts from the whole as a hi contrast picture. Fascinating effect on the foliage though. I think I'd be tempted to crop just above the barn roof and lose the bottom half of the picture. Don't worry though, despite my complaining I'm not giving you a low score (not telling you what the score is either).

Now, if you'd taken a similar subject and made a high contrast picture...

Has all the potential for high contrast and then avoids it. Odd, that.

Overtime

Comment:
Lots of contrast in the middle with the neon fountain and the man pissing in the pond, but not much elsewhere. Maybe a little overtime could help the architects save up for a plumb bob...

Could have taken more contrast - for the challenge, I mean...

There's almost no white and no black. How's that high contrast? It's a great picture for sure - just don't see what it's doing here.
