    I agree with Z, very powerful shot. Might be missing something here or there, but I love the colors and the contrast, and subject.

    Nice. great work. I think the only thing that hurts it is the composition of the building. If it wasnt so centered, maybe itd help the aesthetics. but overall very nice.
    I don't want it, I just need it...to breath ...to feel ...to know I'm alive.

    This is pretty cool, I wish the power lines were either more pronounced, or not there. The sky is great and the line provided by the road is excellent for depth. My "hand crop" from the left seems to help with the overall composition, check how you like that.

    I like the composition as it is. Framing is effective. I also like the treatment you gave this to simulate an old timeless shot that has a degree of a haunting feel here. The hard contrast works but I think having a bit more exposure in some of the darkest areas ( the brush on the right) would improve.
    My one real concern with the image that you have posted here is that there looks to be excessive banding in the clouds. A loss of smooth tonal transitions most likely occuring from the heavy post processing.
