lovely blue, lovely wall, a time of life, a time of day. I predict a 5.1234.

I like this for its textural contrasts and interest and for the pop of the blue against the neutral browns and grays. Light is nice, too. Probably should have given it a six but went with a seven for some reason. I think your guess is quite a bit too low. Maybe 5.5

the blue is intense.. good job. a bump from me and I think your prediction is underrated. 5.4

it's an interesting study of color and texture but the foreground green grasses dilute the power of the door and wall justaposition. I think it will be about a 4.9.

That's a rude tree, deciding to grow just there. 5.2 prediction.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Interesting color contrast. It would have worked better without the tree though...the door looks interesting but is obscured. 5.5

your guess is too low. DPC will like the bright color of the door and the beautiful tones of that color caused by shade and shadows.

I like the composition, which feels very stable even though it's off balance. Six from me, and from DPC a 5.45

Nice image and beautiful blue color. I do not agree with your score guess.

I guess 5.235

This is among a relatively small number of images that I think will score well. 5.8
  Photographer found comment helpful.

A square inside a rectangle. Love the framing. 5.8
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/07/2015 04:57:13 PM
I gave it a seven. Guessing a 5.6.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/07/2015 11:51:33 AM
Nicely presented, good composition and I really enjoy the colours. Not a crowd pleaser though as your estimate suggests. It will do better than that though - more like 5.0
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/07/2015 05:05:27 AM
Nice combination of wall and color. 5.124
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/06/2015 04:59:25 AM
I like the overgrown door. 5 from me. Your score might be close, I predict 4.4
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 09:32:04 PM
no way. very bold 6
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 08:34:24 PM
Better than that - 5.70
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 07:59:51 PM
I really like the contrast and the bold color. Predict 5.2.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 07:30:14 PM
Interesting - a colourful door-within-a-door with trees growing in the way and the door does not look to have been neglected for long enough for those tress to grow up. Definitely not in my four row. Six from me, predicting 5.603
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 07:22:40 PM
It seems like there's potential here, but it's somehow now quite right. The more I look at it, I'm curious what it would have looked like zoomed in on the smaller blue door almost obliterated by the tree... Six from me, but I think the overall will be more like 5.4.

4,2 is not fair for this shot,,,,5 + is fair,,, love this green door,,,,, 7 from me,

A pretty cool medley of shapes and colors - I think it'll break five. 5.20

4
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 01:55:06 PM
higher than that, at least a 5.4
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 01:54:05 PM
Nice textures here. Contrasting colors sort of holds the image together. I estimate 4.85
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 12:57:07 PM
Humorously joking:
did the blue wall ambush the stone wall? or did the tree ambush the picture?

I like the (pardon the pun) off-the-wall nature of this image, i'm giving it a 7 as an artistic triumph, I think voters will finish around 5.18
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 12:51:09 PM
Is this real? Who would put a door right behind a tree....
Interesting situation but non-interesting photo. Still higher than your guess. 5.3
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 10:49:49 AM
Ha yes I wonder who came first. I estimate a final score of 4.4
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/05/2015 04:44:01 AM
unexpected, but good, splash of colour here.I predict 5.4
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2015 11:55:43 PM
The house with the blue door. reminiscent of Knotting-hill â€Â¦or something. I really like the light beam it works well. you are a little light in your prediction I think. there is a little magic in that light and the crop seems to work as well. 5.5 is a Better guess and I will vote a six. good luck

If you let your mind wander (and wonder) there would be lots of stories in this image. 5.64
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2015 11:37:04 PM
Love the color, and the texture - this one takes some effort to see the value and I don't think it will score high. 4.9
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2015 10:24:28 PM
I voted before looking at titles, now commenting.

Not sure what I'm seeing.

My guess: 4.76
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2015 09:33:10 PM
Gotta agree on your guess. The tree in front of the door doesn't add anything to this. I give it a 4
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2015 09:24:26 PM
ambush< I always feel ambushed LOL I balanced this out voted a 5
I will guess it be higher than that.. 4.8

5.6851 (I gave it a six)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2015 04:06:31 PM
It looks like partial desaturation. Did you think of adding a photo filter?

My guess 5.3
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2015 11:41:13 AM
I rather like this it has good light and makes me feel ok.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2015 08:29:24 AM
I enjoy subject matter like this. A seemingly mundane and ignored subject colored brightly among grungy-ness. I like the straight-on approach as well. Seven from me. Prediction: 5.68
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/03/2015 10:15:48 PM
The bright blue in the rocks and trees is pleasing. I gave it a six. I predict 5.1.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/03/2015 09:27:17 PM
I gave you a 6, it's artistically done, and you may of understimated the score, I will guess 5.4.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/03/2015 05:59:34 PM
Hello, I voted a few days ago, now returning for comments. I think that you estimated your score a little low, I gave you a five and I think that you will finish at 4,8762
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/03/2015 02:23:32 PM
desrves better than your guess the blue door lifts it up
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/03/2015 02:08:42 PM
I think the voters are going to ambush your score.
I like the clearity and the colors, but the subject not so much.
My guess is 4.93

very attractive blue color. Nice composition. for me 6

7 The very pretty blue corrugated metal framing and like-colored wooden door placed smack dab in the stone wall are quite appealing. Then there are the two trees, one right in front of the outwardly opening door. What's that about, or is it just a matter of perspective? Curiously, the entire blue section looks like it can travel to the left on a metal railing track. And why are the trees so pruned? A fun mystery.

This one will be interesting to come back to to see if people give you what they think you are "asking for". I like it. Interesting play of textures and colors. A 7 from me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/30/2015 11:17:48 PM
What a curious place. Nicely seen. Engaging combination of textures between the stone and the tin. I like the horizontal lines carried between the two. The grasses and trees add vertical interest. Personally, I would have cloned out those red spots at the top of the doors or cropped down to eliminate them. Hope your guess is low, because I think it deserves much higher. Good luck.
