| This is a gorgeous night shot, but the ghosts are barely visible. I know, I know - that's your point. But they're so invisble they don't connect the photo to mystery or magic for me. In a free study, without the ghosts, I'd rate this highly. But here, it's a 4. |

| I can see what you tried to accomplish in this photo. There are 'numerous' mysterious ghostly figures milling about. The problem is the composition and angle. None of the figures are terribly prominent in the photo. The figures in the distance maybe make-up 4 % of the photo. While those in the foreground are almost not visible because they blend into the dark background and the busy lights of the city. Making those ghostly figures in the foreground more prominent would be the key to moving this out of the average range and into the 7 and up range. Perhaps shooting the photo at a lower angle would have helped. Placing the camera low to the ground and shooting angled up so that the figures appear more on the backdrop of the blue sky would have made them as visible as those ghostly figures you see in the background faintly silhouetted on the ocean. Also too much of the bright lights would only serve to distract attention away from one of the key elements that being the ghostly figures. Just keeping a narrow slice of the city lights and city line would help keep the atttention tihtly focused on the main elements and make a stronger connection to the title of the piece. |

| Heh, I thought the "ghosts" were the clouds which looked to mimic the buildings. I didn't notice the other ghosts. I'm less impressed with them. 5 |

| Neat concept and execution but my eye was drawn to the sky and city skyline. It took me a few seconds to settle on all of the ghosts. I'd like to see a shot with more emphasis on the spectors. Nice job overall. |

| I like this very much! You did a great job with those ghostly people. And the beautiful night skyline just adds to the beauty of this photo. |
