EDIT: Phew it seems to have all worked!

Great intense colours. My only question though is what relevance does the plank of wood and nails have? It slightly takes me out of the scene and makes me wonder what’s going on!

The framing is a bit iffy but I think that’s a factor of the shaping and design of the overpass rather than your shot. Vignette is quite strong but I think it’s good that you’ve ‘hid’ the details at the side which are of less importance.

It was pretty tough when it came to the top but I went with my gut feeling! Hope others can agree.

I debated back an forth on if I should have left the plank there, but ultimately decided to leave it as to me it seemed to add a bit of urban quality to a brilliant sunrise, and give a more substantial subject over the big white ball in the middle.

Thanks for taking the time to comment on all of us having judged before I know how much time it can consume.
