Comment by SquirreI:
Very nice picture, but some of the verticals appear to be slightly slanted.

Comment by bbmohr:
great colors. Maybe would look better with the vent in a different place in the composition... No, I think you cropped well. 7.

Comment by bruski:
Great color and composition. The vent(or whatever it is) really stands out and pulls your eye to the difference even though the rest of the image is so busy.

Comment by melismatica:
This would have been a far more striking abstract without the black grate in the top left corner. I don't really see how that adds to the idea of proportion or lack of it unless you want to argue that the distracting grate adds a lack of proportion to the image. The problem there is, it does so in an unpleasing way and uninteresting way. I think focusing more tightly on fewer bricks and shooting straight ahead instead of slightly up would have made a more powerful statement about the proportion in the design of these colorful bricks. The slight tilt upward is skewing the design.

Maby a different crop would look better? It bothers me that the picture burns in the upper right corner. Like the colors very much. Red buildings vs. green trees. I can see a good shot taken from the path on the left up on the red buildings on the left. Good job though on this one :)
