 The most original shot? Perhaps not... We'll see what the voters think. I think I'll lose a few points for it, but it was the best shot I had for the challenge.

Not sure why this got a 1 but congrats on winning the blue. It's always amazing to see a blue ribbon smacking the person that gave you a 1 right in the face.

Yes, it's been done a few times before on DPC, but it's your first time. And you had to process it, which you did well.

Congrats on what's now the blue as your first ribbon and your new personal best!

Congrats on your first, and a blue to boot!!! I've self-disqualified myself - you can read it all in the comments bit on my photo. Well done!

Stunning shot! Can't believe that this is your first ribbon. There will be many more to come, I'm sure of that. Congratulations.

A familiar scene and view point, and not sure whether sepia works for this. However, nice tones and contrast and probably one of the better ones in this challenge.

Sharp photo, great contrast.

Great detail and plenty to look at. The contrast between the dark river and the light sky works well, and the composition is spot on. Well done!

Incredible in too many ways to list individually...

This looks like HDR which is illegal in basic. Aside from that (I'm voting as if it is a legal photo) this is an amazing catpure. Nice focus, clear, great detail....it's a 10.

Saw this picture in color (not exact same I am sure) here recently.

Very nice tones. I hate to be picky on such a great photograph but i'm going to anyways - my only slight criticism is that you seem to have some blown out spots of light near st james cathedral and I dont like the reflection in the water all the way in the bottom left corner. But, great job.
