This really is an impressive image. I've seen very few sevens and eights that can compare. I definitely give it a 9 plus. All the different textures really come out to create a strange and twisted image. Almost doesn't seem like earth - except that I saw the place you took it. Crazy Cool! |

I'm curious as to how this photo was taken without violating any rules. |

Wow. Very heavily processed, but to excellent effect. Great job! |

Wonderful creativity. I think your effect, which I'm interested in reading about post-voting, really helps capture a desolate mood. While I hope I'm wrong, I fear that you'll be smashed to bits here, though... :-/ |

This looks a little overprossesed, but i think it makes the image fantastic.

Different... I like it. I assume the graininess was intentional, but seems a little too much. |

I reckon this would have been very cool without the effect here! |

Interesting twist on a lanscape for this challenge. Use of grain to emphasize the desolation of the scene is a good idea that works well. There is a bend toward smooth neat imaged landscapes to do well so expect some voters to give this a lowere score. They will view the grain as coverup for a poor quality image. The light haloing around the big tree at left of center is a big of a distraction in this fine concept. |

I like the mood or lack of mood you created in editing. Is this just basic editing? i |

This looks like a sci-fi version of earth after WW III. A definite contrast to all the beautiful shots, yet it meets the challenge and is well done. 6 for now, but will be taking a second look later. |

Extreme noise, extreme artifacts, but somehow it seems to fit the scene. I like the effect. It is weird, it is strange but it is also pretty cool art-wise. :) |

I'm not a big fan of the grunge, grain thing. Looks like this is a solid image anyway 6 |

My idea of a landscape photo is one that captures the natural environment. Some editing is fine!! I just feel that this is a bit much. I would really like to see unedited, a little more "aunatural". |

I like where you were headed. It's kind of Dali-like. But I think the execution needs to be a bit better. |

Lookes like it had the potential to be a very interesting shot if it weren't for the low image quality creating that wierd pattern (most visible in the sky). |

I presume that the noise was added in Post-processing. I think that it may be a better picture without it. |

The grain effect for this picture turned something that would have been a 4 for me into an above average shot. I give you a 6. Great slection of texture on this one. It really works! |

Interesting idea in post processing, however the sky has a weird noise pattern that is distracting. |

Nice picture, art, spooky but also top blue band without much structure, draws a lot of attention without contents |

Very interesting photo. Not to sure if I really like the effect that you have created here. But that my feelings. |

How did you get the sky to look like that? great composition. |

6 - Mainly for the potential. Criticism; like perhaps a few others are saying, and I realize you were likely going for this 'look/feel', but the grain/noise(?) added just does not complement this shot in my opinion. The texture in the dried/cracked mud and the dead trees, coupled with the 'contrary' water nearby, would have made for a great shot. Same goes for the colors. Compositionally, I think a slightly different crop, especially bottom left where that partial shadow is, incorporated or excluded, would have made this better in my opinion. Possibly also more of a horizontal 'framing', showing the more flat and expansive type landscape. Was your call though, not mine, but if this were 'clean', possibly an 8. Not sure if the frame helps. |

Has enormous potential but the noisy sky doesn't help this image in my mind. |
