I didn't compete, Sonar crashing and no time lately, but what are your thoughts?
 
In this newest contest I like the salvatore nuccio entry the most, has the  most interesting take on the very straight piece. My 2nd place is anatoly melnykovych, the quiet but well-considered entry that has some great 'feel' dynamics.
