Breathtaking in every aspect: color, composition, lighting and subject. One of the top three for sure this week. Congrats on an amazing shot!

This ties with one other shot for my absolute favorite this week. This shot is just fabulous. The building looks crooked to me, but I'm not sure that it is! The black and white is perfect for this shot, and this building looks absolutely charming. I would SO love to know where this is. I love your composition - I think that I would have taken a tight shot of just the building, leaving out the sidewalk, and I also think that it would have been a mistake to do that!! Adding the sidewalk really gives it a great sense of "place". Congrats, I would hang this on my walls in a heartbeat.

Love the color of the barn. Nice choice of subject; lots of interest with the vines growing all over the place.

Cool shot, love the colors, as well as the patterns in the glass or whatever it is.

Eternally For Sale

Unfortunately, this is not very high impact for me, largely because of the soft focus. With all the repeating patterns, as well as the "character" of the peeling paint, I would have loved to see this in sharp focus. The shot does carry a certain air of "old", "decay", and "abandonment". For voting purposes, I am taking into consideration that your camera may not have been capable of a sharper focus.

Got to admit, this made me smile. I love your use of color, but think that the composition could have been a little more dynamic. I also think I would have been very tempted to crop out the wall on the left, giving the shot a more "wide-open space" feel.

Stained Glass

I like the composition you used of including the area surrounding the window even though it is pretty dark on my monitor. The window itself is awesome, I would have been so tempted to do a closeup of some of the window details; I imagine that it could be breathtaking.

Puzzling Door

How cool is that??! I love the whole look! Nice color, and I love the crispness of the architectural details. The only thing I'm "iffy" about is the loose puzzle piece - it seems to be floating in the air, and I would have expected to see it laying haphazardly on the ground in front of the doors.

Come In

On second look, I like this shot more than I did the first time. I really like the color and interest of the stained glass, and though at first I thought the shot was a little dark, now I find that I really like the harsh shadows that show the definition of the "architecture" of the door. I like that the door has a really old look to it, almost a smoky look. Nice shot.

City Windows

Interesting color, and repeating shapes, but it looks like an old industrial building, not a "city" building. In this case, I think I would have preferred a more centered composition, especially if all of the windows on the right side were white - it would seem more balanced that way to me.
