The Falkirk Wheel is a fascinating structure and you certainly captured a nice view of the place. The composition and colors are great, but those reflections... Wow! Congratulations on your ribbon!

Congrats on 2nd place.

Why would anyone vote a 1!
This is a awesome photo.

You should have gotten nothing under a 6 for sure and I would have given it a 9 or 10 if I had voted.

Lovely capture of repetition and reflection - very intriguing patterns and colours.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

stunning...but why didn't you save this at 640 pixels? 560x560 is too small to judge properly for sharpness etc the colours and comp are great...but, please save at the full size in future...just askin'

maybe I'm too conservative and boring, but taking into consideration that you focused on the cricles, directin camera exactly in the middle of the circles would've give even better result. Probably there was no possibility, as I can see you tried to keep it this way. I love the colour and detail of the circles. What is it BTW? 8.

fantastic colors, good POV and composition. bold frame works well
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very strong imagery... Nice colors. Slightly soft focus, slight horizon tilt & blown highlights ultimately detract for me.

The pattern itself was really good...but the reflections just add that much more too it. Great job.

Think the border is too big though..
Well done. Good luck.

It REALLY would have made a difference if you had rotated this one to square it up. Very dramatic image.

me thinks I spy a winner. However, I do think the border is much too thick and maybe the inner color should be purple instead of white

WOW - that's really cool. Love the magenta/fuschia. Great perspective.
