This is one of the better photos in this challenge. Its on topic, composition is great, the coours really stand out. I love the DOF and you got the right person in focus. THe background isn't distracting.

Cool building, nice clouds to work with, I'd like to see it a little less dark.

Comment by MAK:
I have exactly the same shot dude.. i might post it as my day 11 pic if i can find it... too scarey.. I feel its a tad too dark, some highlights/shaddows in PS would really get the building to shine and pop.. nice clouds though

Very good composition - and I like the contrast in textures between the wall and the grass.

Greetings from the Critique Club

My first reaction upon seeing this image come up in the queue:

"Awwww, nice!"

Truly you have a simple, starkly black composition of a complex subject, with a perfect background of complementary colors. What's not to like.

I don't see anything technical that needs to be pointed out and I really like the image.

Your score is respectable, but not great. Perhaps it's because voters had a steady diet of flamboyant images using the Expert Editing mode, while your image relies on simplicity. Always hard to tell what's going on in the mind of our voters.

You're fairly new to DPC and when I looked at y our portfolio, I see you've jumped in with both feet. Keep up the good work. I'll look forward to seeing more of your images.
