You've captured a very powerful, rather night-marish mood here. Well done!

I like this a lot. The yellow is highlighted against a dark but not totally dark background. 9

Great burst of yellow here. This almost reminds me of a JPR edit. if you're not JPR, please think of this as a compliment ;) Wonderful! 8

I love this one - so griity and crisp. That odd teddy bear is just plain weird. I even like the slightly forced composition. Lighting is wonderful - a great example of what can be achieved in imperfect weather, without a stunning landscape or subject of typical beauty. Faved.

This is a great use of some desaturation without pushing it all the way to a black and white image. I find the teady bear a little distracting... I would prefer him either in or out of the shot. (prefer out since he distracts from your yellow). The horizontal lines in your composition add a sense of stability while your vertical lines add strength. That, combinded with a good "rule of thirds" lead to a very nice composition. well done.

The yellow works really well in this gloomy context. Is that a teddy bear stuck near the light?

This is an amazing shot IMO. I love the contrast in light/shadows, textures, and color. The detail and focus is great. Curious to see your camera and settings when the challenge is over... 8

Is that a teddy bear tied to the post? Wonder why? Love the yellow and gray - very effective, nicely composed. One of my favorites.

Nice shot, but the yellow feels just a little over the top for me. Excellent job of dodging/burning/draganizing.

Is that a teddy bear hanging up there? How strange. I'm having trouble getting past it to see the rest of the shot. Neat shot though, and I love the bright yellows.

This is nice and fits the challenge well. A little dark in the upper left corner.

I would like this better if it was cropped just below the directional sign.

I like this alot. Is that a teddy bear tied to the yellow light??? It suits the challenge IMO and I like the dark dim street with the punch of yellow to grab your attention.
