I think the white space at the top is unnecessary. Did you try this as a square crop or as a 5:4 or 3:2 ratio crop?

Congratulations, you are the first recipient of one of my infamous compression comments for this challenge!

It's a cool looking abstract shot, with one major problem. Tons of blocky compression artifacts are showing. Your 15k file size confirms that you uses a lot of JPEG compression when you saved this. Always adjust JPEG compression so that your file size is as large as possible, but within the challenge limit.

Greetings from the Critique Club.

First impressions is the grainy feel of an old horror movie!

Technically it's hard to tell if this is the result you were going for or it's gone a little wrong. Given your profile I'll assume this is what you had in mind. I find the composition awkward in that the building grabs my attention but the tree branches then immediately pull it away. The grainy movie look is done well but the processing has caused some halo effects around the building.

Artistically the is good. The look is not the usual DPC style. The POV could be a little more dramatic if you were a little closer to the building and that may also remove some of those branches.

In summary a unique shot that probably was a little to off the "DPC path" to score high.

Feel free to PM me if you have any queries.
Gerry

I wondered which of my New York neighbors took this -- then I found it was from a visitor! I understand you used very little adjustment in pp, so I wonder if you had a red filter or something on your camera for this stunning shot.
