*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
First impressions are of a fairly unconventional approach that subtly meets the challenge.
What I like most about this is the sense of mystery that remains once I have climbed those steps to, what? Whatever lies on top or inside the structure and thats where the mystery remains, so it is intriguing and any image that can do that to me will always appeal to me.
However, having said that about the composition I am not at all keen on the processing which has left most of the image looking fake, plastic and unappealing with significant areas of overexposure. I am aware that I appear to be in the minority here with some very positive reaction from your commenters which just goes to show how subjective this wonderful hobby of ours can be where it can elicit such diametrically opposed reactions which is part of what makes photography so exciting and challenging. Keep intriguing me, Sid. |

Over processed for me looks like a bad HDR, with sharpening halos rd the rim as well
Think most ppl wanted a traditional leading line that collects you at bottom of the image takes you on a journey and delivers you somewhere having toured the highlights of the image.
This lacked any subject I was being led to I voted 5 |

Such an effective vertical leading line! Unconventional but brilliant.

Subtle but effective "line." The processing nicely accents the tank. Nine from me. |
