I loved the color to this one with the rich blue sky the row of yellow windows and the star effect on the yellow lights. What hurt it, imo, was the composition with that dominant tower smack in the center of the shot. I like the perspective of coming at the building from the POV of the power lines, maybe that could have been played up even more by moving off to one side a bit and shooting right through them, offsetting that tower at the same time. This is one challenge where the presence of power lines and stuff don't make you absolutely crazy. They actually add to the meaning of the photo. :)

I gave it a 6 which is a good score with just some room for improvement. I don't think I gave anything higher than an 8 in this challenge. :)

I can't believe this didn't ribbon. Looks like the top scores were really really close though.

Great job with the photo and congratulations on the high placing.

1st, thank you for not giving this the title "Busy Bee." :P

2nd, photos of bees on flowers are high on my list of "jeez, another one?" when viewing these challenges. This one is definitely one of the more interesting I've see. I like that the bee is in flight. I like his little legs hanging down with those pollen things. And I like the rich orange/yellow color of the whole photo.

I might crop it a bit tighter on the bottom, into more of a square shape. I don't care for those shadows down there.
