ok, i'm really not quite sure what to make of this. there's nothing wrong with it technically (it's in focus, the exposure is under control, it has an appropriate dof). it is somewhat interesting compositionally, with all the lines, and the colors. there's just something i can't put my finger on. i guess it's just that even though images as this have their place here, and i do appreciate them, i just can't believe that this is the best image you produced last year. just with what i see here, i know you have the equipment, eye, and capability; that's why i just don't get it. i'm sorry if this sounds harsh, and i promise you, after this is over, if i can't find any indication that you could have picked a better entry, i'll start a thread and publicly apologize. it just seems to me that you have the ability to do very well here, and, unless you have some emotional attachment to this image, you entered the wrong one. good luck!

I like the composition here, the tall thin crop works well.

The border is distracting and I would crop out most of the sky.

I think this would have worked better if you walked a few paces to the left so that you don't just get a straight up and down line of the pole with the telephone wires, but them moving towards the horizon line to meet the building.
