Greetings from the Critique Club!

I didn't get a chance to vote in this challenge, life and all that but had I had the chance I probably would have given this image a 5 to start, possibly a 6.

I like the idea but the overpowering red in the shot overshadows any contrast the white STATION might have offered. Also the 5 itself seems a it out of focus, not sure if that was intentional, trying to keep the focus on the STATION but with it being such a large part of the image it's a bit distracting to me.

Also the orange line leading away from the top part of the 5, while a nice way to lead out of the shot doesn't really work for me, again it's competing against the STATION, and my attention is all over the place as a result.

Hope this help.

Not enough shadow. 5.

I like this very much. It's simple and graphic and certainly has high contrast. I wish the 5 were as sharp as the word station.

Very nice with the reds. Really speaks "high contrast" to me. 10

You definintely have high contrast - wow! simply, yet works...wish that one line wasn't there in the middle left hand side, but again, good shot!

This is really cool. Love the vivid color tones. My only minor criticism is that it's off horizontally (just a bit, but still noticeable). Otherwise, great entry.

Cool idea. I like how the white really stands out. I think that this shot could maybe benefit from a tighter cropping. Especially at the top, the frame or bar, or whatever that line is across the top seems to really take a lot away from the image.

Great take on teh challenge, and with a PUNCH!
My only dig is the word station is off a little horizonatlly - kind messing with the balance.
