WOW!!! I really like the composition on this one! When I first looked at the thumbnail of it, it just seemed like an X, but when I saw that you said Washington Monument, I realised what it was. Way to go! |

Very creative use of the crop. The brown sky looks better than the black in my opinion. Great capture. |

I had to comment on this image once more because I am very impressed with it. Shame on the dickweeds who were compelled to vote 5 or lower on this shot for whatever ridiculous reasoning takes up space in their tiny minds. By voting so low on a clearly talented capture, you abuse the privilege and your obligation to be both objective and realistic in your voting of other peoples fine photographic works. I gave this shot a 9 during the voting period because it has a wonderful composition, very good detail & clarity, and met the challenge criteria. |

Fabulous shot, Jeffrey. Congratulations !!! At first (for just a moment) I thought it was a sword cutting through something. I particularly like what you have done with the color. |

Nice angle here. And I wouldn't say I'm exactly whoopin' ya at trivia...(Just saw your comment on my December self-portrait). Nice to meet you too. I see you also did a three-headed self-portrait. |

Congrats! You mentioned the "brown" sky. Try tungsten white balance some time for city shots at night.
I like it just as you posted it. The X angle works. |

Wow! An X for you indeed! Were you thinking of this composition when you took the shot or did this come to you later while editing? Either way, this is brilliant! |

Wonderful image, would have scored this a 10 but the x pattern just took some of the interest out it for me. Scored it a 9. |

You're making me tilt my head and that is most unkind. The tilt makes the most of the available space, granted, and the reflections are pretty darned cool ... well, I suppose if I didn't keep trying to look at it with my eyes parallel to the horizon I wouldn't be feeling so askew right now, so perhaps it is not entirely your fault ;-)
Nice job. |

It's amazing how a little change, like a rotation, can throw a viewer so far away... all that would look familiar and I wouldn't spend more than a microsecond on, now looks new and interesting...
A couple of extra points for this original idea. |

This looks like something levyj would shoot, but this is way better than I would expect from him. Don't let anyone know but I think most of his work is doo doo. I just like to amuse him. Great angle btw. |
