A very interesting photograph and one of my favorites in the challenge. I really like the composition, the beatiful colours and texture. The image has a strong surreal look to it and I find the tension between the objects above the door on the left and the melons very interesting.

Keep up the good work.

This should have placed much higher! I really loved this shot, thought this was a great entry - looking forward to seeing some more of your shots.

Good luck with future challenges!

I was visiting a farm 20km east of Marrakech and the "spa" room (yes they had an in house hammam) had this outside room with multiple doors, I toke the side that had the tree to added more to the image. Yes with a deep blue sky it would have been better.

Interesting scene, but what a wierd combo of elements! You sure this wasn't intended for Surrealism? I'd love to see the same shot with dramatic side lighting and a deep blue sky.

I found the bright sky to be a bit of a distraction and would have perhaps cropped it out. I'm not sure how the water melons fits in, but for some strange reason it works - they add character and a splash of colour. Overall, a very nice entry.

Oh, I do like this picture. It has a really neat mood to it. Good job of cropping (or lack of it), the top of the building is a necessary inclusion to finish the picture, and including the entire tree is good (would have looked a little weird chopped off). The fading paint makes for beautiful coloring on the wall. Why the watermelons? (I like that this picture makes me question)

I don't feel that the image conveys instantly recognizable decision. Otherwise a well composed image.

Wow, what a neat picture! One of my favorites of the challenge.

I like this, nice textures on the walls and door and I like how you've composed this. I don't know why there're watermelons on the floor but this could easily have been entered (and done quite well) in the surrealism challenge.

An 8 from me, I really like this shot. Good luck

EDIT: bumping up... 9

LOVE the colors in this photo. They are not too strong, somewhat muted, but it works perfectly for the photo and the feeling! I love the door colors.. I wonder what's on the otherside of each of them. Can you tell me before I pick one? ;)
