    Liban, Great shot. Love the concept, though on my monitor, the focusing is a tad soft. Other then that, great shot and lovely idea!

    This is a bleak scene and looks so well. The absence of a blue sky actually enhances this in my opinion. It almost looks like a model, built up in Lego style.
    There's a bit of white 'fog' on the front of the lower right hand building which I feel should not be there.
    Great contrast in colours between almost each building also. As Jared said, a little soft on the focus but the overall composition rescues it.

    I love the idea behind this shot and it's easy to see what you're going for. I like the colors and the contrast between the old and the new, but for me, the church gets lost. There is so much going on in this photo that the church tends to get lost a bit for me, but I still like it. Nice work.
