Greetings from the Critique Club!
Not bad considering it looks to have been shot around midday (going by the backview of the whited-out curve of the Opera House) but it looks too much like a typical snapshot - hastily shot without much thought going into the composition. Personally I'm not fond of the overly tight crop at the top of the Opera House, hence the 5 I gave in voting. I think that with the Opera House seen pretty much in profile, and the ersatz photog seen at a 3/4 overhead, and that vast expanse of water, that there is a lack of connection between the two.
Still, not a bad attempt and you still did include a phone in the shot, so at least you didn't get DNMC'd ;-)

| This suits a preference of mine favoring subject matter on the edges. From that viewpoint, very well composed and well judged tonality and maybe most important, sly placement of the subject. bump |

| Down there in his hands. Suffers a bit from mental comparison with spectacular sharp and bright images of that building. |
