silhouette is good, but the brightness o0f the light does spoil this photo somewhat.

The bright spot ruins it for me... The B&W is washed out...

This is blurry (er), poorly (less well)composed, poorly (less well) exposed and is noisy (er).

I am a little confused by the previous 2 voting comments.

Both shots are noisy.

The defender's shot has the luxury of being essentialy a sky shot with a silhouette on the side. In spite of that, the sky is quite coarse and there are noticable sharpening halos on the buddha.

The contenders shot has excellent 'bones'.

This is the tunnel shot that all the under the pier guys aspire to. ;-)

...and with the subject in the foreground to boot.

Shot in a harsher environment
with life and whimsey to spare,
there is no doubt in my mind that the challenge is truly worthy one.

voted 1of100#1.

Perhaps I should have said 'noisier'and blurrier'.

Call it art, its oneof.
Call it hurried, its noneof.
I say hurried.

@ Robin Thom, just a comment about my defending shot - it's not actually sharpening halos, you're looking at chromatic abberations (look at the purple hues). That's what you get with a Fujinon lens. Luckily just got myself a rebelXT, so hopefully we can avoid a little bit of that noise and CA =)

back to the voting...

Oops.

If that's the case, sorry.

No sharpening happening in the camera?

hm... i don't quite see the "artistic" value of this pic. to me, it looks like a snapshot of the back of someone's head, in a concert which turned out blurry with a lot of noise.

I will have to go with the defender.

I don't really dig this picture and, besides, the buddha image is just so serene. I love it.

no competition IMHO
think snap could be improved by cropping out the scaffolding either side, but still not in the running

I think this is superb, and that toning down the bright spot would spoil it completely.

(I just wandered in here from the Bookshop pool.)
