Good repetition, I like the B/W.

cropping down the sky would have accentuated tthe wide expanse of houses you are showing here.

This all happened in a year? YIKES! The shot is well done, the darkness on the right side is a bit distracting but otherwise I love the overall shot

The angle of the row of houses is very good. It's so flat there - I think I can spot three water towers. Re: Your title - It's amazing how fast construction goes.

Some of this photo is too dark, maybe a little contrast help in photo editing would improve it. I don't understand about the tomatoes, but maybe I'm not looking hard enough. On second look, I think I have it, did this used to be a tomato field??

I think in this case your title makes the shot work. I wold have cropped off a little bit of the sky to avoid the centred horizon look.

Great title

How sad. And this happening all over the world - sprawl, sprawl, sprawl... Nice shot, well composed - good use of mono. Shade is a little indistinct. [7]

Ah, suburbia! We are all sheep! This is a good capture. The conformity of these people makes me sad, which is good b/c that means your shot got a point across to me. The only thing I wish is that just right of center the street and houses are dark. I'm guessing from the angle of the sun. (from the shadows) Good luck.

Wonderful perspective. The eye is led along the row of houses, all the way to the horizon, and then to the water tank in the distance, placed in a compositionally important point. Great work - 10.

Little boxes made of ticky-tacky, and they all look just the same.

Technology never sleeps, I sometimes wonder at the rate new houses are being built. Good depiction to the challenge.

Good idea, good shot! The house under construction at the front of the picture is a great added touch.
