To be honest, I don't really know how to fairly compare and critique a short piece of writing, a photograph and two drawings. I just can't judge them on any equitable criteria.
I quite like the photo, it has a nicely melancholic sort of atmosphere and is a striking image. The first picture is technically adept - the angling of the door and such is very good - but I can't say I'm enamored with the colouring; it just seems a little indistinct to me. The second is simple, cheerful and colourful and I can't help but like it for that. Finally, the extract of writing is fine but I can't really put it up against the graphic works properly.
So, yeah, it wasn't a lack of interest or respect for the endeavors of the artists but I'm afraid I wouldn't know how to vote.
