It would appear this is more my comfort zone. LOL
I think you did well, and its great your extending your photographic vision trying different things.
I think it being all vertical is somewhat bothersome to me. But I can understand why you shot it this way. I may have liked to see it further away, or with a wide angle and horizontally shot.
The lighting and colors are great though. |

What a moving, emotional shot! I loved this so much during voting - was sure it would take a ribbon, but you're close. Hope you get out of your comfort zone more often with these challenge entries, Sandy. You did a great job! The muted colors, the black clothes, and the perfect lighting are what strike me most about this image. |

"WOW" this shows so much emotions and one can almost feel the "desolation" from where I sit..... You are just an amazing photographer, that is now trying new idea, and they are working to your advantage.....
Congratulations on your placing here in this challenge..... |

Wonderfully executed! The tones you used really adds to the desolate feeling of this image along with the old bluilding and man with his head in his hands. Great composition! Awsome Job! |

I love the composition here - something doesn't feel right though and I can't put my finger on it - maybe its the fact that the light is on the desolate person instead of being away from him ? - 7 |

this evokes the 19th century somehow, in spite of the sneakers. excellent composition demonstrates how the mind gets trapped in itself... rooms within rooms creating a spiral of despair. 9. |

My favorite of the challenge! You have captured the challenge perfectly. Perfect lighting on your subject. The framing of the doorway for the stairs and the man adds to an excellent composition. The color tones are perfect. 10 |

Fantastic use of the doorway as a frame. Fits the catagory perfectly. Bottom of the stairway, head in hands, it don't get too much more desolate. Use of color and shadows is great. Good job. |

This photograph totally captures the desolate heart. It almost looks like a painting. Except for the sneakers, I feel like I am looking into the lonely heart of Edgar Allen Poe. I like the photo. |

This "thumb-nail" just "pops" for me, and absolutely "LOVE" it when enlarged. I feel it "so" suits this challenge so well, and have no hesitation in giving it a top score of "10"..... This deserves to ribbon of placed in the top ten..... |

I love this pic, and scored it highly - but my only nit is that this guy looks a bit too well dressed to be in such a setting. Though, it does kind of add to the enigma of the image: what is such a well dressed man doing with his head in his hands in such a wretched place? Great pic. Love the tones and textures. |

One of the best photos I've seen in the challenge so far. Love the composition, his pose, the run-down building. I love that he fits right in the curve of the steps. Perfection! |
