Sorry if I sound critical, but there doesn't seem to be anything to focus on in this pic. My eyes tend to wander around the photo with nothing to land on.

Thanks for the votes and comments everyone- This building was the site of an IRA bombing in 1984. I figured it would go well with any kind of story about the situation Northern Ireland, the IRA, or British life in general.

A better edited version can be seen here:


I corrected the persepective and tried to focus the viewer more on the three railings, as suggested by Josha (thanks.. didn't even think about that). I think it helped, did I make the picture sit easier on your eyes too?
