Thank you everyone for the awesome critiques! I know the sensor needed to be cleaned on my camera, but when trying to figure out the best way to clean it, the minefield of deterrents kept me from cleaning for fear of ruining my camera!

I finally decided on my own method to clean my sensor. I have a Kirby vaccuum cleaner, and I set the mode to "suck". Put the hose near the camera and it cleaned every speck of dust from my CCD! This is the first time I've used this method, and it worked great for me.

I look forward to competing in more competitions!

Nice. However, I think I would like this more if it were black and white.

Nice tones, I like the curve against the sky. I see your camera needs cleaning, several spots in the sky.

I love this. Great tones working in this image. Bet you wished you could clone out the sensor dust hu? I still love it either way!

A interesting trip into the mundane, good for this topic. I do find the blue smudge area in the top right of the building to be a little weakness
