i shot this atop our roof, building approx. 1 km away. I have been monitoring this construction for months already. I've taken photos during daytime as well as night time.

This one was shot just after a heavy downpour. Construction obviosuly was temporarily halted.
I like the clouds and the sunlight coming out.

I played with curves and saturate a bit. No cropping.

mine was not really a spectacular shot imho but i'm quite happy with the way this turned out. i'm wondering why with the 1's and 2's.

9 - Excellent. Criticism; even though I'm assuming you've gone for the 'horizontal framing' on purpose, I think 640 height too would make this even better, especially in this restrictive medium. Good colors, shadowing. Title is a little lost on me but doesn't seem to be a 'forced one' so minor. Perhaps just a little more detail, especially in the steel framing, but again, likely is but not discernable at this size. Up to 9 from 8.

"This photo has been validated", it says... it looks _so_ surreal! What was going on, there?

Amazing

weird feel on the post processing

Very catching. The contrast is great. Blue sky seems unlikely but is great.

Stunning....no other comment!

Wow! Absolutely stunning. The grandness of the steal is just miniatureized but the cloud. Fantastic.

Good composition. Too much alteration for my liking though.

Pretty imposing image

A strong image, minus the fakery. The colours just seem too unnatural (on my screen at least). I think I'd have liked the original better?

this composition and subject matter is excellent. I like it a lot, well done

This is a really neat photo, but looks really overprocessed.
11/30/2005 08:44:22 PM
Too much done on this one. Just too much.

Beautiful composition. I like the combination of horizontal and vertical elements in the photo.

incredible image--very dramatic events

Well done.

Okay, first off when this shot came across my screen while voting I said, "HOLY SHHH@T COOL!" So with that I think you've got something totally out of the box here. I'm loving this as a piece of digital art; I do believe you've crossed the line between a photograph and art here. I'm not saying that as a bad thing so please don't take it that way.

Colors are amazing; your use of blue, yellow, grey and black all work well to create drama and wonderful contrast. Good luck.
