You had good leading lines on this one, but the use of shallow depth of field, though a wonderful tool for defined, single subjects did not work for this composition. It needed to be focused from top to bottom to have gotten a better response. Anyway, I was one that gave it a 4 and I think the reasons were focus, too low a contrast, a bit light on saturation, and I found the subject to be unexciting. You do have a good eye for composition, also. That is my strongest point as well, but I am discovering that composition is not something that many voters put much precedence into. I am still searching for the magic, so join the club. Let's keep on comparing our photos for the challenges and see who does best in the future, than we can talk about it. I am marking you as a favorite photographer and we can all be part of the brown nose club.(lol)

This image lacks a clear centre of interest. How is it a dead end if the road winds out of sight? More depth of field also would help. Nice colours though.

I don't get the impression to a dead end.

color a bit flat, lighting flat, fence post very distracting, what are you showing me the road? the fence post? the BG? texture nice, dof nice,

the composition is good but it lacks a bit focus and interest

I would like to see this without such a shallow DOF, (the whole shot in focus) just as a comparison. I like the way you have composed this shot, good luck.

The subject matter is dull and uninteresting.

This looks like anything but a dead end to me!
