Greetings from the Critique Club :)

I really like this image I think the subject is spot on with regards meeting the challenge as the 6+ final score shows.

You have captured this building in a very clever way, the left hand edge being straight within the frame and the leaning of the right hand side I find very nice compositionally which makes for a nice lead down through the image where my eyes come to rest on the dark area (what I assume is the entrance of the building) unfortunately I feel this may be where the image falls down ever so slightly and what may have stopped it from scoring even higher, the dark area is maybe a little too dark especially after all the glorious detail within the upper 2/3 of the shot. Obviously this is out of your control in a basic editing challenge so I understand you were working within the limitations of the shot recorded.

Conversion to B&W fits this image extremely well and the sky is nice and dramatic, I wonder if anyone was fooled into thinking this was over sharpened looking at the windows on the left hand building, however I do not think it is oversharpened I believe it to be the reflections of the building opposite making for a busier area. My opinion is your post work was right on the money.

Overall a very fine entry which easily deserved your 6+ score

I really like the humour and would have found it hard to give this shot less than 5 simply for the smile.

Technically I think the pink cast might have cost you some points, I think possibly desaturating it some might have helped with this.

Nice perspective, shame the weather wasn't better for you I imagine this could have been stunning with a nice low sun.

Really interesting shot, I never seem to "see" these sort of opportunities when I am out and about - hope it does well for you - 7 from me
