The color tones on this are just gorgeous, and I love the softness and the grain. I get that same sense of something alien going on.

Paul...the duotones are perfect to present a sense of desolation and the reflections give the sense of moving through time. The grain creates a sense of past history. I did a military entry too...haha! Great minds think alike...;-)

9 - a desolate military instillation - I thought it may be a target range. Enjoy this subject & uncommon hand made colour combination. The patches of subtle reflected windows twist this space into unusual layers.

I love the transparent alien ships landing on the desert. I hope they didn't abduct anybody into the 5th dimension.

From the train, I'm guessing?

not very sharp. looks like it was taken through a window or perhaps that is just a reflection at the top?

I feel this shot is hurt by motion blur, a reflection of the window that it was taken through and excessive noise/grain.

I find the reflection/silhouette a distraction.

I am guessing you took this through the window of a coach or something. Very interesting shot and great subject for the challenge but I do have to say that the reflections are quite off putting

Is that a reflection from a bus window? Not quite sure what is going on.
