This is the arches above the altar in a church in center city Harrisburg, Pa, and I had been outside shooting in the cold. The weird foggy effect is created by condensation on my sensor!

I am surprised that this didn't score better than it did. It is a great photo and the use of duotones enhances the photo, as opposed to many of the entries that just converted a photo to dutone to fit the challenge. It is a shame the voters didn't appreciate your efforts more. It is still a nice score, but I think it should have been higher!
Nice image, but looks like some pixelation/something issues. Blue toning is nice, but I see traces of red, so not sure (for this Challenge). Fairly minor, but the symmetry seems out, but could be your intent. The gradient is nice - hopefully natural, 'in image'.
don't really know how to rate this one. On the one hand i like the feel and presence it has. I like the range of tone and the color, but... I just feel like it's toooo surreal, if that's possible. almost like it's not even a photo. I'll give it an 8.
