not every picture tells a story, but this one does. the brownness just seems to fit the mood and the themes.

Due to lack of color in the image, would like to have seen it in B/W

Great subject. China? Health and safety might have something to say about the guys on the roof!

good shot!
I would have done it b&w, very contrasted, and squared (for myself, huh)

Glad to see a shot like this, in the verge of urbanasation. You know what? I like the colours too! 8

Beautiful tones and such an interesting contrast between the structures.

Looks like China. Is it? This image tells a very nice story and makes a good connection to the challenge. Seems like it may be early in the day or hazy - gives an impression of being underexposed a little. Good luck in the challenge.

This is a great shot but it lacks contrast and the light is flat.
Some more sharpening could help.

This could be part of a photo journalists' story.
