I dont like this at all, i think any tourist can make this photo.
A creative choice of subject, good composition, contrast and color, maybe some extra techniques like depth of field or panning etc are some things needed to make a challenge entry very interesting. Your image has none.
You just saw metal as the theme for the challenge and made a shot of some metal on the street. Sorry, no creativity points there.
Even the name could have been something related to time and the world since u have a clock there. The name is not the description.
Hope my comment was useful to motivate you. Keep trying

I really like this shot - and I like the fact that the building's clock is "inside" the sculpture. Beautiful green colors, slightly overexposed, but a great shot!

Ooh, pretty green color. Good shutter speed on this, I really like the look where the highlights are bright like that.. really draws your attention to the green metal even more.

I like this. That color on the metal gives character. The angle is interesting to me. It is pleasant to the eye. There could have been more of the structure to locate the subject.

I like the angle of the shot and the subject matter. It is clear and well shot. However, I would have liked it much more if it was not a shot of the entire sculpture. Seems there is a lot of detail on the 'feet' or anchors of the sphere that a close-up would have afforded a better /more interesting shot. As it is it is just a picture of someones sculpture.
