Wonderfully strange! Knowing that those tiny little things down there are trees gives the image a fascinating 'detatched' feel to it... very interesting!

Fascinating... I wonder how it might look a little bit closer up? Great image!

I got zero comments during a challenge once with this:

Frustrating, isn't it? :)
Here's my two cents on your photo. If I had been voting I admit I probably would not have been moved to make a comment on this either. There's nothing necessarily wrong with the image, but nothing outstanding either. The quality certainly ranks higher than "snapshot" thanks to the duotone colors and the nice shallow DOF, but it's not very interesting. Perhaps getting closer to the subject and making the shallow DOF more dramatic might help out. Maybe a different, more dynamic composition would also increase the impact - the two people on the right don't really add much to the shot... Also a personal nit-pic for me is the specific shade of color you chose to make this - it's sort of greenish blueish, and not very pleasant in my opinion. Perhaps a warmer brown color might have worked better?

Hope this was helpful! :) I think this has potential... the subject has captivating eyes.

I love the mood. It's interesting how the image itself looks perfect, but that texture adds a nice scratchy 'used' feel to it. I like that. I personally can't tell that it's soft as you mentioned - in fact I think that's one of the really nice things about overlays. The original image might look blah, but a texture works magic on it. :)

Mesmerizing. Something about the light, the black on the woman and the sunglasses she's wearing... the slight touch of quiet color...the almost-smile on her face...is just mesmerizing. Splendid capture. Superb work.

I like the somber tones and simple colors.

Well, I've not had any experience shooting architect/abstracts like this but... I personally don't think it has enough interest to catch the viewer. Perhaps it could use some more color, contrast, and a more exciting composition. Excellent try though, it looks like this subject could have some good potential! :)

I like all the cat poems you've found! Wonderful photo - I like the way the cat seems to be almost part of a shadow.
