Well going for something I have not tried in a challenge before, and High Key Image. Probably will go over like a rock but I'm hoping for at 5.5 or greater.

Wonderful high-key and I am a big fan of it but I think the tilt doesn't render this too well.

Highlights are washed out and too much white sky.

This is NOT high-key. This is high contrast. Open this in your editing software and you'll see a U shaped histogram with spikes on the left and right edges. High-key and low-key are possible do to a lack of contrast.

A high key image has most of it's color dat in the right-most 20% of the graph. You can do this by Using the Hue/Saturation/Lightness dialog to Lighten or push to color data to the right.

Nice image. Good contrast.

Very nicely done high key image. I like the starkness you've brought out, and the angle really adds to the impact.

LOL @ you pointing out that this is high key. It shouldn't be needed but you're probably right taking no chances. As for the photo I really like it. My only nitpick is you should have burned that lower window so it's like the top one.
