it really is very disappointing that ppl vote on assumptions ..
your title had no bearing on how much i liked this .. it was like a will-o-wisp passing thru my mind .. the impact for me was in the visual ..
but i was blown away by all the low votes on some amazing images in this challenge .. of course ppl do have different tastes .. but like i say .. disappointing .. i personally never give a score less than 5 ... i feel if someone is going to go to the trouble of entering a photo i'll give them points for that .. :)
I am with you Roz. Very rarely do i give a 4 for something I just can't understand at all. I thought this was such a creative picture. as you said some very odd scoring, but then abstract usually does split viewers.
Thanks for your really generous comment Roz! I always appreciate the thought and comments you give
to something you like. I thought it was interesting that the 1,2 and 3 voters are back. They have been gone for a long time.

Wow! I have not had 1's and two's and three's in a few years! Check out these scores and comments. What a diverse community! Were I to do it again, I would title it and the funny thing is
the title was an abstraction as this was taken at an art festival in Cefalu, Sicily several years ago. I thought people who voted 1's and two's
and three's to make a point were long gone.
Very cool! Normally I would dislike this effect and especially the garish colors, but it's perfect for this one. Recognizable as a street scene but certainly abstracted enough for me.
this is FANTASTIC ..
love your processing on this .. you have created something truly unique ..
its a wonderful abstract work of art .. :)
not voting yet ..
title hurts you here - the whole point of an abstract is that it is not recognizable as anything (see entire challenge description) - a terrific image IMO. GL
