Colorado is full of Broncos fans who demonstrate their loyalty to this team in a number of ways. This is a close-up of a storage unit door and lock. The entire two-building mini-storage unit is painted orange and blue. I took the picture early Saturday morning to catch the sun low in the eastern sky. The old saying around here is "if God wasn't a Broncos fan, why did He paint sunsets orange and blue?"

Patsy - I must apologise because looking at this on my work monitor the orange is more evident.

nice contrasting colors, but it's a little flat to me. perhaps fill flash would have brought out some highlights and made the colors pop...

Nice use of color but seem to have some focus issues.

Nice colour but it seems a little out of focus to me.

Very nice choice of subject.. nice bright colors but unfortunately the overall lighting on this shot is a bit dark. (My monitor is calibrated btw) Focus seems to be a bit off too... Excellent composition though! Good luck on the challenge! :) 6

As a general, I like the combination of colours... but it's not clear enough... :(

You've probably heard about this already, but to me this looks too red. Did you tweak it in Photoshop or similar? I think you've gone a little too much and it doesn't look right.

cool colors, nice composition, but seems to be lacking contrast and sharpness. Perhaps shoot from further away and use the zoom to achieve more DOF.
