Okay......bear with me, I'm trying to learn how to leave carefully constructive comments. The contrast between the entire structure being visible *except* the way that the guardian is shrouded in shadow is disconcerting to me. I would like to see more definition on the guardian, or less on the steeple/tower. Perhaps angled as someone else suggested, or perhaps less of the steeple/tower below it. I agree that the colors seem a tad off.

What an interesting building and guardian. It's amazing that "they" put these wonderful statues so high up that all you ever see are there silhouettes.

I like the PP, the building almost seems superimposed on the sky. I might have skued the building even more to add some contrast to the strong horizontal and vertical lines of the building.

Charlene - I love the sky in this. It has such a beautiful swirly blend. Looks like a beautiful building with all the variety in construction. And I personally like the processing.

I really like the PP on this especially the colours which have an almost olden day feel to them

Cool building and nice detail

Midtones seem a little flat, giving the whole image a greyed out, undercontrasted feel. I'm not sure if that's what you were after, but I think it detracts from the image somewhat.

PP seems a bit overdone
