Wonderful abstract. Very good perspective.

Great composition! I would prefer a greater difference between the blues in the arch and the blues in the sky, but that may not be possible without masking. Also, I'd not use italics because the slant competes with the slant of the lines behind the text. Otherwise an excellent photo.

Comment by eloise:
Not a bad idea - I've seen postcards with that sort of concept/setup. However ... there really isn't much contrast, at all. Everything's almost exactly the same color of blue, and nothing's really clear enough to give you somewhere to look. The text could also use to be bolder and postcardier, or omitted entirely (since as it is, it seems half-hearted and unsure, and just makes the overall effect worse). Maybe it's cropped too close, or the angle is slightly too extreme.

Sorry, just thinking out loud about how to explain my reactions. :->

great angle on an oft photographed landmark. :) I love the consistent blue tones as well. My only gripe is the font..its not adding anything to the style of your photo..still a great shot though!

Nice composition! I love the angles and color. IMO the type should have been centered and placed across the bottom.
