| Charlene - I love the details and distorted perspective to add to the drama of the image. That is one harsh sky! But you did a nice job controlling it. |

Congratulations on the excellent score and the great placement. Thoroughly deserved for a picture that went way beyond the challenge requirement and showed not only a deserted building but a poigniant story as well
Really like the black and white conversion, which again is all the more impressive as it was done in basic. Lovely composition and application of the rule of thirds. Certainly not a cheery picture but one that tells a story that is too often untold and is very cool for doing so |

Interesting subject for the challenge.
Shadows and highlights adjustment in PS would have helped to bring up some detail from the dark parts of the buildings while reducing the light on the bright parts. |

| It's a sad story, isn't it? Love the dark tones, pefect for the mood. The contrasts on the buildings are excellent and I love how you can see the wear and tear on the roof of the building in the background. |

| Fantastic tonal range...really black and white eye candy imho. Perfect exposure and a lovely sky to compliment the shapes and textures down below. Lovely. |

| Not sure I like the caption--couldn't it be "Farmer's Ineptitude, So Future Subdivision"? But well-framed and nicely stark. |
