I doubt this picture will do very well since it doesn't really jump out. It needs something. Estimation: 4.6-4.9 or so.

If I could see more of the stairs, it might look better.

proof that a good pic doesn't have to be full of saturated colours to work well. achingly simple. 8

great shadow and contrast between the light and the stairs.

Just too dark. I know, the shadows and light will be diminished by brightening things. Tough position to be in. This probably just comes down to taste.

Meets the challenge, but image lacks interest or wow factor to woo the voter IMO.

Great find. Just wish it were a bit sharper.

it's good, but does not hit the high note for some reason. I think there is a lack of sharpness and detail that my eye is trying to find. Hope that does not sound too vague.

This is really dark and hard to see. Maybe if there was something else slightly going on it could help
