This is a large sculpture down at the Denver Design Center. It stands 85 ft. high and 41 ft. wide, and was built in 1985. I see it all the time, and when the Yellow challenge came up, this was the first thing I thought of.

It'll either do well or tank. Not sure.

I used a polarizer to remove some glare and get the deep blue sky.

PSPX Edits:
Resize, rotate, contrast (+10), cloned out some dust spots, add border and ran through neat image.

I could see why you said it might do well or tank. Regardless of how it actually went it's a good image. I think the polarizer made the shot for the voters.

Way to go! Hopefully that Mag. 7 team doesn't have a bunch in childrens toys and refraction to beat us.

Different, love the lines and shadows, the dark blue bg is complimentary.
