I know this area! I've been there many a time, in the building to the right is Motley Fool Headquarters! :)

This is a wonderful area, I love the cropping on the overall shot, a real sense of balance but the sun on this shot did not help you, the rays are nice but a bit overpowering in the shot and a bit distracting. But you get extra points simply because I love this area ;)

Those sunspots on the right side ruined the effect created by the sunrays. Cropping them out would have helped.

I dont know if you were aiming for the lens flare but using a lens hood or not shooting directly into the sun helps tremendously. The lens flare takes all the contrast out of the shot. Looks really flat to me. 4.

The lens flare is not really enhancing your photo in this case. Taking pics into the sun is sometimes useful, but not for shots like this. Maybe had you waited a little or come early in the morning it would have looked a lot different.

Too much lens flare. It can be a neat effect if not overdone.

i think this would have been a really nice shot if you didn't shoot into the sun. I kinda like the effects of the sun rays but you can't see the buildings which this challenge was about.

The lens flare and strong rays don't work for me
