As I mentioned, the graininess in the BG was intentional, to emphasize the difference between the structure and the surroundings, which are actually very blah otherwise. I "later" thought this might look good in a duotone.
I did get one shot later of blocks tumbling, but there was no "composition" to it. These were shot in a museum, so avoiding other people and exhibits is tricky. This one was composed by "dead reckoning" with the camera lying almost flat on the table -- no using either the LCD or the viewfinder. |

I like the tension. The perspective distortion adds to the drama. I also like that I can see the face of the builder of the tower. He seems very intent and focused which is good for the picture. The fact that it is b & w is probably a very wise choice with this since it gives you a stronger sense of the repetition with the blocks. There seems to be a fair amount of grain in this, but I don't think it matters too much for this particular shot. The prominent feature of this photo is the face of the tower and other than a nice repetition and good contrast there isn't anything there that keeps my attention. |

Great viewpoint and composition. Shame there's no action here - like tumbling blocks, but it's still quite strong. |

this photo is grainy and looks "over-copied." I love the subject material and the compostion is very good. |

Very good! The only thing I don't like is, that the background is too noisy. |

Lots of noise in this picture in the background. Good idea for the challenge though. |
