A poorly composed picture with no obvious relevance to the challenge. 2 Jak

Comment by Hendrik:
This looks to be very low resolution. Or maybe it is a very small crop from a much larger picture. Either way, it's just too grainy and blocky for me. Sorry.

Comment by UberFish:
This only just passes my quality threshold, beyond which I start to make impolite comments. But you just made it, so:
The whole thing appears lopsided. Youve used the right corner as your guide, but you should have used the nearest one, as that is in the center of the picture.
There is a very large area of boring wall and hedge. Use a verticle frame and focus more on the front of the building, as that has more interest.
You have chopped the entrance to the building off, it may have been ugly or had cars in front, but do try to show entrances when doing buildings, they give scale, and lead you into the picture.
Youve used too much compression, Dont go below 70% comprression for these challenges.

Colors look off.. Depth of field lacking (Due to the focus on the flora on the left.)... Makes photo look OOF ... RLS

Comment by Swashbuckler:
I'll keep this short, left half is somewhat negative space (intensional?) The sky is blown out (intensional, too?) The sign is almost readable. Best suggestion: walk up closer to the building and take the shot in portrait. 6 Swash

Really needed to be framed to show the grille better - or the sign better. There's a lot of blank wall here. Good choice of subject though.

Comment by karmat:
I think the sign, since that seems to be what you are focusing on, should be more important in the picture. Also, I think cropping the right side windows would help. I like the way the bushes/tress lead the eyes to the building. karmat

Comment by jsabbarton:
Front on would be better (I think) and there seems to be far too much empty space and very little subject... This is just my opinion, good luck...
