Yeah, "too busy". Right. Check out this link for too busy and report back:

If you do go there, hit the "next" button a few time and it'll really make your head spin with "busy". Oh, and you might not find a "clear subject" in many of those photos either. So by your scoring method those would score toward the bottom of the scale too, yes? Don't you just hate it when so called photographers don't follow the rules? I sure do.
What's that you say? "Not much focus on yellow" You're kidding, right? Please say you're kidding.
Note: This was a grab shot. No set ups. No tripod. No lights. Just a moment of Americana that actually (if you look hard) did happen to have just the tiniest bit of yellow here and there. No it doesn't quite slap you in the face with yellow, but believe me there is some yellow in the shot. And, actually, LOTS of it. Just in cool places and various places. Kinda like a puzzle. Kinda random. But present. Very present. Not blatant, though, you're right if that's what you mean.
The fact that it was a grab, hand held, full bore 200mm shot accounts for the (apparently) way beyond acceptable level of blur and the high ISO for the grain, but we might expect an ISO 800 shot to be a bit grainy, mightn't we?
And, finally, yes it does say "Sex Rd" and I did have to position the camera a bit to get the right angle to capture it that way. But that was a mistake probably. Just got lucky. No skill involved.
Thanks to the people who did "get it" and scored appropriately.

| There isn't much focus on yellow here, not to mention the blur and grain. |
