Interesting Image that offers a unique view point.

Focus seemed to be a bit of an issue. Slight one, though.

Wondering if there might be more interest if the train was going by. As it is, it's a rather static scene. Not a lot happening.

Shooting at a more interesting time of day or with a more interesting sky would help too.

Too much happening in this photo.

Beautiful. Great composition. Neat idea. Like that it's different. Nice choice of places to take the photo. Love the hills in the distance. They bring a finish to the photo. Well done. Should be up there in the challenge.

Composition: Good. Plenty to look at
Technical: Building on the right merges into the bars, which I think might have looked better if they didn't.
Meets challenge: Yes
Overall impression: Tech lets down a really great pic. 6

I really like this photo. There are many squares in it and the photo looks very abstract. Where did you take this photo? Very nice.

Not sure if you should have just focused on the bars/fence?
Not bad.

I enjoy how you have displayed your image. I think that by showing the city through the squares makes everything much more appealing. I also enojy the mountain in the background that has been split apart by the squares. Nice Job

It's an interesting shot, but I feel like the bars are distracting when I focus on the background, and the background too distracting when I focus on the bars. In my opinion a more simpler (plain) background would have helped.

Neat perspective. Nice shot, good focus, color, light. Well done in my book.

You might not like it, but I would have tried to enhance the distortion a little more. Otherwise the picture is a tad too...normal?
