I think this is a very good attempt on your part.

As was stated, the title kind of understates the feeling of the image. the word HOPE can be related to desolation, but not in this image. I would of expected some human emotion when you provide a title like HOPE.

The image is great, no need to give a detailed critique. Just remember that the title of the image is part of the package deal. You have a week before the voting starts. Step away from the submission in the future. Give yourself a day to get the image out of your head. Go back to the image later on, and decide for your self if the very first impression you get from the image and title are working like your want.

The image should give meaning to the title, not the other way around.

55 is better than 56th place, or last for that matter.

Regards.

i think this is gorgous, if it were mine a bit less sky would help this image, though i am just one opinion and we all see things thru different eyes,this still is a very fitting image.

The pic works great for desolation. IMHO your title weakens the feeling.
