Nah, I think that the concept was understood. It seems that every image
gets a few odd comments, especially non-traditional images.
xilo_m(at)hotpop(dot)com obviously has a *very* specific idea about what
constitutes a good picture. He left similar comments for many of the
images this round. Some will always appreciate what you are trying to
do, and some will not.

This was one of my two favorite images of this round, but I really don't
see it as exceptionally vertical. I do really appreciate the fact that
you removed many unnecessary elements from the picture. Irrelevant
things like weather, landscape, surrounding architecture, season, and
even time of day would have taken away from the important parts of the
image. I think that ascension isn't obvious in this picture because the
horizontal elements continue into infinity as do the vertical,
especially on the left side of the picture. Dramatic shading of the more
distant parts of the image would also highlight your vertical lines.
