I love the actual composition of this -- the arrangement of everything is perfect. And the high contrast and harsh shadows really drive (no pun intended) the point home. Nice job!

Thanks bvy. I was playing around with HDR for this one. Haven't quite gotten the hang of that yet though, so just used the contrasty version instead.

Simple but effective. I like the stark treatment of this.

Very simple. very nice. It does look a bit over sharpened and over saturated though.

I hate it when that happens. I think the contrast/sharpening is just a bit much on this one.
