You pulled this off very well, with the darkness behind the shattered panes. Effective composition. Good job.

Very broken, well found. The impact needed to score high isn't there yet and I'm trying to figure out how you could get that. Perhaps it's that it looks too lively and happy with nice bright colours - I don't know. Sorry I can't offer a solution.

Quite a lovely pattern here. Bumping up.

Interesting effect. The brightness of the bricks are rather disturbing, would have been great to be dark red instead. Maybe B/W would give a better impact to the picture. 6

Interesting shapes in the broken windows. Some of them look like silhouettes of faces or characters. Neat shot!

I could have done without the brickwork...

What I like most about this picture is the interesting shapes caused by the broken glass. Just wondering .....maybe a bit less red brick would draw more attention to them. Good shot - 7.

You definately met the challenge with this one.

I like this shot for many reasons but could also see where some cropping into a portrait shot would also add something to it as well. But that is just my opinion :-)

i think that a full frame shot of just the window panes would have worked better here... any unsubmitted shots like that?

Hi. I like the photo, but I think it would benefit from a little more contrast.

Too off center for me. sorry

I found myself making pictures from the shapes left in the glass.

Did you notice they look like profiles? COOL. I think it needs an adjustment of curves or levels to enrich the tones.
