It was a very unique entry and it got a 6 from me in spite of the problems. It deserved something on the positive side for the creativity.

This has a really nice feel to it, but it came out too fuzzy.

Great composition! The full moon made a timely appearance this week. This image would be a bit more handsome if the noise around the insulators and lines.
