 Four Square Court in an urban playground in Cambridge, MA, USA. I really liked the angles of the numbers and the textures of the paint.

Not sure I can agree with the "underrated" comments here. I think it placed exactly where it should have. It's an average shot. It's a shot of a dirty and worn floor. Nothing excites me about this. I gave it a 5 and I'm usually a very generous voter.

way underrated. the combination of complimentary color and the rough ground versus the even numbers and the overall geometric appearance makes this shot.

Seems kind of flat (you know that I mean ;-)

I like that you created an even (symmetrical) shot, and included the even numbers, so that every aspect met the challenge description. Like the acidic processing look too.

Would like to see this with more saturation, more contrast, and a little darker. It's a cool composition but needs to be pushed more to give it a grittier, urban feel.

good composition and focus, not a subject that could keep the viewer captured for a longer time.
