I think you have an exceptional eye for the dramatic. The leading lines for this are very good. In addition, you have a good eye for disregarding those elements that are immaterial to the impact of your shot. That's a deadly profitable combination... (IMHO)

Although I don't think this is your best work, I think it is exceptional - in that it produced a significant growth point for you and a marketable piece to boot. Please don't misinterpret my comments to mean that I am being condescending or otherwise disrespectful - it's exactly the opposite. You've got a lot going on here that's not necessarily displayed in this particular photo - and it shows. This is not a bad thing - in fact you should try to capitalize on it as much as possible now, because it won't last long. Such are the realities of life.

I would suggest burning the wood and pole in this shot, to regulate the "wow" factor to the area it will serve you best. This is a wonderful shot, full of depth, color, life, and meaning (at least in my little world). Great job and I look forward to more of your work in the future.

this is a much better example of leading lines than the chrome shot.
The exposure levels are well done, making for a beautiful natural looking sky. The poles - both wood and metal lead my eye straight to the top.

Definitely leading lines :-)
A cool perspective. I actually was thinking of something kind of like this for the wooden challenge. You've got a good vertical started from the corner, maybe try taking a slightly sharper angle, so the top of the pole goes to the opposing corner, completing the vertical. Not sure about the metal pole going up the side, maybe see what a similar shot with just the wooden pole would look like. That is a pretty cool sky also.
