Greetings from the Critique Club...
You score reflects the "where's the connection" for sure. I'll try not to repeat what's already been pointed out, not commenting on the contest connection but rather the shot itself (I didn't vote on this image but I'd have to agree on the contest disconnect)
I found the repetition of geometric shapes and simple colors (blue, red, yellow) a plus. Aligning the lamp vertical and horizontal lines adds to this effect. This lower/central part of the frame is the most interesting.
I'm struggling to see a main subject or story so I'm left with disconnected images and no way to pull them together. The shot looks "chopped" as the bottom elements are cut off (building, trees, and pole) while there's a bit too much blue sky throwing off the balance.
Please keep in mind this is only one woman's pov :)
Email me with any questions or comments. I enjoyed browsing through your other challenge and portfolio entries and found lots to like. I look forward to seeing more entries! Happy shooting

Poor composition I'm afraid since the bank branch takes a back-seat to the Bishop furniture building. |

The lines converge awkwardly, and the lamp pole is placed at a poor angle. It's not clear why this shows branching. |

The building lines are disorienting. Image rotation or a different shooting angle would help. |

What exactly does this have to do with the challenge? If that is a bank branch, we wouldn't know it. Looks like a snapshot to me. |

A branch of something Im sure, but even with that not at all interesting. |
