The colors look oversaturated to me, and I don't know what the hanging things are... perhaps their silhouettes are not recognizable enough to be strong subjects for this challenge.

Nice color contrast. The grainy apperance of the sky is pretty distracting, however.

They are silhouettes but not easily identifiable and that throws me off a bit. Only my opinion but the indistiguishable silhouettes and the utility pole and wires don't combine for a great composition.

I think this one might have been better presented with a bit less saturation / noise.
