Comment by ergo:
The image feels flat, with a bit of hazyness and not enough contrast elements.

Beautiful place, image needs a little more to match. How about punching up the green as well? Wishing for a sign in one of the gardens inside.

I think the border is to distracting. It draws my attention away from the image, instead of keeping it on the image.

I have a big issue with the color of your border as it becomes the main subject to me.

Greetings from the Critique Club

Hello! Yes, this image meets the challenge nicely as you were undoubtedly going for the 2:00 time (and too early for it).

I do have a couple of suggestions for you. In compostion, you might try moving your camera so that the tower has a little space on all sides. That left edge is a bit cramped, while the right side has more than enough space. And, if you can, try to include all of the tower in the shot - including that spire!

Then, you have good detail, but this image could use some contrast. If your camera supports bracketing, try taking pics over and under the 'official reading'. In this instance, I have a suspicion that this image would be improved lots by underexposing a stop or two.

You're getting there. Lots of practice and a good understanding of your camera will get you far. So keep shooting! I'll look forward to seeing more of your work on DPC.

Alice.

Two minutes too early for what? Without the title this shot doesn't say much to me about the challenge. The clock itself just isn't enough to indicate a mood of any sort. Strictly in terms of image quality, this is very poor, even for myself, never a stickler for a perfect digital image. Compositionally, it is a little better in that it captures the subject matter without a lot of distracting details like power lines, etc. Unfortunately, there is a bit too much drab sky in the background. Nearly 2/3 of the frame is taking up with washed out white skyline. The building looks oddly flat which is strange for such an architecturally detailed structure. I'm beginning to suspect that this was taken with the digital zoom so that you could get a shot of the clock hands. I think this would be the culprit behind the flatness of the picture plane and the extreme noise. The clock just isn't a captivating enough subject to make it worth sacrificing so much image quality by using digital zoom.
