Isn't it annoying when a photograph doesn't do as well as you'd hoped and yet there are no negative comments? I find it drives me mad, so I'll try and work out why this didn't do as well as it should've.
Your initial image is a fairly boring one with just a person walking down a pavement at dusk, but you've certainly added an interest twist to this one. Your slow shutter speed as unearthed new aspects that would have remained invisible before. I certainly like your depth of field in this image to keep the subject of the photograph in focus while giving the uneventful background some life.
I think the only problem here is that voters tend to whiz through images in rapid succession and at a quick glance, this photo looks as though you don't know how to use your Casio. Also, there seems to be a little too much going on in the frame for some people. The chaos factor implied in your picture tends to be a love/hate with many voters and so you might have been unfortunate enough to get the wrong mix of opinions.
The incredible blueness of the sky here really helps energise the image, although I dislike the top right corner where there seems to have been a source of light when you took the photo.
Overall, this is a perfectly fine photograph and is relevant to this competition. However, I think the reason it didn't score higher lies in the region of people preferring much steadier and clearer landscapes as opposed to small subjects, and chaotic colours.
Good Luck for all Future Competitions!

heavily underrated (it was my top pick of the challenge), but well, one could have easily guessed that :-) |

I don't believe this shot got the credit it deserved. I found it very original and I scored it a 10. One of my favourites. |

Creative, great color and different. Will probably get wacked for a score but I think you have captured a feeling and an image with impact. |

Now there is a defined crack!
I like this, it's different from most night shots. |

Please tell me that's a girl. I don't want to see man-crack. Anyway, very interesting and artistic picture. I like it very much actually. |

Interesting choice to focus on the butt cleavage. Creative, if not altogether odd! |

Great style! Definitely a powerful image...I can see it on a huge advertisement for teen clothes. |

I like this VERY much as pop art. Not as much as a photograph. Just my personal taste. Don't let it worry you. |

Almost could have titled it moonrise. ha ha
Nicely done. The vivid colors and sense of movement makes for interest. Not the typical shot. Well done with originality and pinache. |
