The city of Chicago should consider this photo for their Chamber of Commerce web site and/or literature. It's a stunning image. |

I'm coming back to leave another comment on this photo.
It is under rated, and deserves to place higher.
You never know what makes someone give a 3. especially 14 of them :(
It's a great photo, I'm sure you'll nail a ribbon soon! |

Hard to see that this is a puddle because of being so close up and the angle. Really great idea. Nice reflection. |

Overexposed for my taste. Interesting composition. (5) |

i think your exposure may have been on a little too long. the image would be sharper and more pleasing to the eye if it were shorter |

Nice golden tones but a touch too overexposed. Regardless, a good image and bumping up. |

I really like this and am bumping it up. I hope you win a ribbon. The yellow really makes it pop out. I wish it was a little sharper though.
good choice of color :) |

IMO the shot is too overexposed. You have lost a great deal of detail. A few seconds less, may be best. |

Somewhat over exposed by at least 1.5 stops |

this is very good. my only point of real criticism is your inclusion of the muddy bank - it just seems to clash with the very smooth stylish elements of the rest of the picture. i like very much the colours (all browns and yellows) but one thing i might suggest would be to play with the contrast on the buildings - they just seem a smidgeon bit washed out / greyish to me. the water is so smooth - you did choose a perfect evening for taking the shot. it's lovely - 8. |

I like the subject and composition of this image but IMO it's just too bright. I just recalibrated my monitor so I don't think that's the problem. First I respect artistic integrity. You may have intended it to be ultra-bright. But in case that wasn't your intention, I did play around with a copy of your photo a bit and a levels adjustment would made it more dramatic and toned it down a bit. I tried 50-100, 1.0, 255 across the RGB channels and got results more to my liking. Hope I didn't offend you. It's just my opinion after all. |

This is a great location for this photo and a nice shot for this challenge. I think you could have captured the reflection just as well without so much overexosure, so you might want to take more shots around this area with a bit less ISO or lower shutter time. But the composition is really nice and you sure picked a great subject to shoot. |

I think it's overexposed, but I like the composition, maybe you should have cropped out the building far to the left. |

Beautiful gold tones. I have this picked for a top 3. I think I would have liked the composition a bit better if the line of lights had been less centered. 9. |
