Hi from the Critique Club --

First Impression: A GREAT shot! Beautiful!

What I like: Well, actually...What I Love: color, focus, subject, scenery, exposure, levels -- all perfect. Just gorgeous. I can't think of anything to improve upon.

What I don't like: I'm afraid I'm going to have to go with the majority of the commenters and say that I don't see the "contrast" in this photo, unfortunately. I know the desire to post a shot like this and hope people make it fit the challenge, but I think this would be a winner for landscapes, postcards, travel, etc... Just not right for "Contrasts"

Congratulations. I'm blown away.

I like it. I think you shouldn't have cut off the doors at the bottom. Perhaps you had a good reason. Nice image of aged wood....Lots of character.

I think the focus is soft on this one. Not a criticism though, just trying to judge with my new eyes for good photo's. Subject is great!

Comment by Musicman:
Not enough detail in the arches. Nice arches but just arches to me. Maybe if there was little more light intake tto see a little more of what the arches are made of. Yes, I know it is brick but just a little something is missing. 7
