 The only reason this is innovative is because I am learning how to use my camera :-) I was trying for something like a bokeh style to emphasize the bars and the railroad tracks, since they give contradictory messages. I also used Neat Image for the first time.

Congratulations on producing the most thought-provoking image in this challenge, Amy. It has compositional & artistic qualities that were sadly overlooked by the voters . Forget the ribbons; see if you can do something of this standard again in the "Light" challenge!

Simple and effective. Beyond the wire (pun intended) the beautifully balanced composition, with shape and tone working in harmony, is the main appeal to me. First I thought "train tracks", but now I think not. What it actually is seems less important than what it suggests ... which is why the title is so well chosen. 8.
Back for second thoughts & revised score. The longer I look at it the more powerful it becomes. 9.

I'm having a little trouble figuring out what this is. Sorry.

Stunning photo. It has the ability to stand on its own, but the title really pushes it over the top. Outstanding work!
