I think you got a little bit robbed score-wise on this photo. I suspect the cut-off lamppost may have dragged score down, as it takes away from the composition somewhat. In fact, I'd love to see this photo with just that front lamppost cloned out.

Otherwise- stunning sky and great sharp focus.

Wow - you almost got my ribbon for no comments during a challenge. True sign of a suck team member! I thought this met the challenge but it didn't quite speak to me. The parts I like best are the barbed wire and the clouds, yet those elements aren't what contributes to what I see as the "perspective". The part I'm not quite sure about is overall, the eye kinda just wanders with no specific place to go. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but in a perspective shot (as I understand them) you do want to try to lead the eye a bit. The upward curve of the support thingie (I lack the terminology) does lead to the sky, but too far on the right of the picture to give you "room", and the rest seems to counteract that leading line. Is any of this making any sense?

nice shot, but where is the dramatic effect?
