I don't think this photo is nearly as bad as your placeing states it is. I actually think this is a pretty good shot. I would probably have given it a 6 or so in the voting. - I would ignore the 1-4's , very impressionistic in my humble opinion.

Nice shot. The object in the lower left bothers me a bit - might be possible to clone it out. Nice focus & colors though.

Would like to have seen a little more detail in the bottom half also

Good sense of rain here. For that you'll get a 5 right away. As far as the image is concerned, that thing on the lower left side bugs me. I would have probably cropped that out. The way the trees are cut off at the top is also something that i would probably work on. I like the sense of depravity conveyed in this image. I don't know why but it appeals to me in a weird way. 6

The pink splotches really draw the eye outside. I think this shot could have been made much more interesting by getting close enough to see the reflections/refractions in the water drops.

Not much interest for me.

Really great concept and it captures the mood. I would have liked to see the top part of this cropped. The light at the top left takes attention away from the main event, which is the table arrangement.
