Very well done, i think i would have left less at the left of the building and more to the right, this is very desolate, therefore a 10 to you, but i highly suggest a different crop for a photo such as this but remember, that is just me, art is individual in all eyes, not everyone will see the same as everyone else.

this is a great subject for this challenge. I've been scoring the muted colors and b&w images higher though because I think appear more sad and abandon. nice shot though.

Looks like lost dreams. Sad. It's over.

Certainly has the elements of desolation but the color and sunlight speak of hope. I think it would do better as B&W with the brightness toned down.

Nice colors, but this photo could be more interesting if you added some DoF.

Desolate and forlorn indeed, but little or no interest to the viewer. Adding something red or yellow, a traffic cone maybe would just add something for the viewer to build a story around. Props can make or break a photo, this one needs something more.
