Greetings from the critique club :)
I didn´t vote in this challenge but truthfully this image would probably have gotten a 5 from me and I would have moved on without commenting. The main reason for that is I don´t really find the image bad but just not really all that interesting and in my opinion has a very weak link to the challenge topic.
When opening this shot I spent about 5 seconds figuring out how exactly it fit´s to this challenge before I concluded you must have meant the green digital numbers to the right. Did you notice that not one of the clocks has a 7 in them somewhere? One thing that would have seriously improved the interest of this shot is if you had taken this image when the minute dials said *.07 instead of *.18.
Anyway, I think most of the relatively low score can be attributed to that people probably had to stop and wonder how exactly it fit the challenge, I think on average the DPC voter spends 1-2 seconds and don´t bother with detailed observation of photos.
Also, for my taste and probably most other people it´s just way way too dark, looks like you needed to be there earlier, when shooting an outdoor looking into an indoor I usually try to do it around dusk and not after sunset cause then there are the best odds of the lighting being even on the inside and outside so you get good exposure for both.
I do like the coloring of the inside and their silhouettes, that part you definately nailed.
Again, the shot is not bad but just isn´t terribly interesting and has in my opinion a weak tie to the challenge, but not bad at all.
Kind regards from Iceland, Lárus. |

| Seems to me that the times detract from a great shot that might fit better in another challenge. |

| Actually. This shows 7 times in 1 place. I'm not sure whats going on at the doorway? Are they locking up. Is one a customer and the other a clerk? This picture is curiously appealing but I'm not sure why. |

| Looks like you were so intent on capturing the 7 digital clocks that you missed the robbery going on inside the jewellers! Makes for an interesting photo. |
