This was my only 10 for the challenge. 15th is great, but I think it should have come higher..

The colors remind me more of Munch's "Scream" than Monet.

I'm not too big with the grain in the sky... That's just me though. The rest is beautiful.

returning for comments:
Great silhoutte to cement the impressionistic feel against the lovely moving sky with great colors. There is a diagonal line on right. Bumping up on the fiery contrast which works wonders.

The overwhelming orange of the sky and the perfect orientation of the bridge work pushed this one over the top for me. Great use of lower third vs top 2/3s and balanced with the Left Tall one-third, right low 2/3s. Although I was later able to make out the supporting wire/power line, It's position once again in the exact spot it needed to be in no way detracted from the whole.

Only thing that distacts me in this is, that cable.

Very nice, I really like the sky, but I'm not sure if the crisp silhouette is too much of a contrast in style. Good luck.

Great use of the high iso...a nice silhoette of the bridge and peaks and spires against the vibrant colors. Great work...

Awesome, except for the wire running up from left to the right of the photo

Amazing Shot, One of my favorites in this challenge. The colors in the sky are breath taking.

A bit too clear and sharp for me to classify as impressionistic.

this is nice. the colors are exceptional, and the silhoutting works well. too bad you couldn't get me detail in the tower, itself.

Mr Monet. It's good to see that you are alive and well. It's a wise move to move away from the messy paint and focus on photography.

Some nice colours, but the composition of the silhouettes isn't strong enough, and rather than impressionist textures, I see noise. 6

I like the sillhouette and the noise in the sky, though the noise seems to distract just slightly. Lovely colors and effective composition. 8

While I like this picture, it does not look like a Claude Monet style. He's got very choppy and long-ish brush strokes while this is more subtle. It lacks a bit of something though. 5
