Excellent strong work: wonderfully proportioned, the lines placed perfectly. Just the least necessary information required to make the fact of the architecture clear, and a splendid use of negative space. I think I would personally have had it in black and white, to emphasise the graphic nature of it as much as anything, but the tonality of sky and sea make your choice completely understandable. The slight reflections at top of the glass add a subtle, easily missed element of reinforcement. This is really strong photography.

this reminds me of the cinamatography style of "punch drunk love" very balanced, very clean, very sterile. it's soothing.

It's a clever photo. Probably as good as it gets for this choice of subject; but I'm finding it just a little too static for my tastes.

I like the oak tree, but feel that the trees behind intrude a bit.

Comment by Imagineer:
Love the tree and the scene. Shot is very over-sharpened though. Tones are quite rich but a little too harsh for true AA. The sharpening coupled with the many branches visible makes this very busy to look at. OK composition but the tree cropped at the top is a shame and eye-level POV is quite bland.

To improve this I would have got closer and looked upwards from a low vantage point. This would show more detail, add some drama and, if you were to expose right, get a long DOF which is very typical of AA.

This is a pretty clear shot of your subject. I think, for me, it's lacking in tone a bit. There doesn't appear to me to be much variation in the b/w scale compared to some of the other shots. Also, I think the subject and composition are hurt by all the branches and other wood in the foreground and in back of the subject. I hope this is helpful.
