there is nothing i want to see on this photo, and it still manages to get cluttered. it would already improve a lot if you'd have just one or two trees or lampposts instead of five.
I think the idea is OK, but you need a bit more "information" here. Just the tops of 4 trees and 2 lights doesn't quite do it IMHO. Maybe go back a bit further and have a bit more of the parking lot included, up to about the same height where the tree tops are now? It's just an idea.
This is certainly minimalism, but lacking an interesting subject. Perhaps a whole lamphead in the foreground corner so some details and reflections could be seen.
To be completely honest when I look at this picture it reminds me of something that I might have accidentally taken by bumping the shutter button while carrying the camera around. There doesn’t seem to be anything interesting anywhere in the frame and certainly nothing to keep me looking at it for more than a couple of seconds. Maybe it would have been better to only have one treetop or light pole as the subject. For me neither one would have been a strong subject but at least my attention wouldn’t be divided between six of them.
I don't think the title fits your picture well. I understand what you were trying to achieve but the parking lot is not visible however light post are but they can be around a walkway, park, etc. Even if I take the light post as the subject they are not a strong point in the picture. The tree second from left is stronger because it has more contrast and better detail. I wish you well in the challenge.
I think you met the challenge, but the main subject is so uninteresting that you might as well have just left it out. Just my opinion and others might score it higher.
I've been scoring negatively for having multiple points of focus, but in this case, it seems to work, as I can see all six objects as a clipping of a single item somehow. I'm not sure *why* it works for me, though. My reasoning seems arbitrary even to me, but it's working in your favor so I guess you won't complain. :)
A couple bonus points for being interesting, but minus one for the slight halos around the trees. 6. The image doesn't really grab me, though, so no higher.
