Highway Systemby APComment: See, this would really go into my personal categorisation as 'Urban'. With at least an intitial capital. It's a great shot, powerfully dynamic and compositionally strong. Love the detail of it, too. |

Carbon Copies by jegerComment: Now I'm a black and white fan - but there could have been more impact in the grass? It has become a pretty bland tonal field, and perhaps a touch more definition would have grabbed the passing voter the more? And in colour, of course ... well, quite an interesting thought to remove the gifts of that medium. I'm not sure black and white isn't too dramatic for suburbia, anyhow. |

Cottage of Edenby stevieianComment: Has that delightfully fake air about it that really speaks to me of suburbia. Not a line out of place, nor a hint that wood might naturally warp over time. Nicely invidious photograph. |

Early Morning Ride.by BrianRComment: Perhaps if you'd allowed his reflection to be non-desaturatede also, there would be something here for me: as it is, it feels like the only way you could isolate this subject, and even then you have the piece of bent metal in front of him. Hold very little for me, I'm afraid. |

Beehiveby Rino63Comment: Interesting juxtaposition of tonality - the walls and the site background, making it difficult to be quite sure where the image ends and the site begins. I'm not sure the New Worlders won't think you're outside the challenge guidelines either - perhaps more urban than sub-. Excellent sense of composition though. |

Barrenby EstimatedEyesComment: Like this, although the strange colouration possibly adds a sense of mistake rather than intent to it. The point is pretty nicely made too. |

Autumn Parade by MAKComment: Not unpleasant, if slightly orthodox, exactly-what-you'd-expect kind of shot. I wonder if you might not have strengthened the tonality of the hanging leaves a little, they seem a touch washed-out for impact. Strong sense of composition, however. |

Tranquility in the Suburbsby phloverComment: You'll doubtless get a bunch of don't like the tilt comments: well, neither do I much. I think, along with what looks like pretty heavy handed processing in the shadows and around the mailboxes, it smacks of a desperation to add some drama - whereas, from the look of that street, the seperate avoidance of drama is what it's all about. |

Ugly Car Neighborby dtremainComment: That's really right up the street, isn't it? There's always something slightly sinister about the suburban ideal of the neighbourhood, I think. You might usefully have tried to pull back some of the near-overexposure in the shot: might have enriched some of the deeper tones, and the sky, for a little more impact. |
