Brick & Tree

Comment:
The focus is on the boards, not the brick and trees. It kind of looks like a tree is growing out of the building, but it's just too hard to tell. You have good color saturation though and nothing is burned out.

Well the title fits the photo, but I'm not sure this qualifies as a building. I like your color. I would have softened the lighting just a touch (you can see double shadows).

Excellant color and exposure. Your exposure settings bring out the detail very nicely and still allows to see into the upper rooms. I like this one.

Little House on the Prairie

Good use of contrast and good choice of crop. I think the bright white spots are just a little distracting.

Port of Portland

My first thought was 'too centered'. I would have moved left a little and shown more of the long wall, putting the spire more on the right 1/3 of the photo. Plus this would have focused in more on the vines that are climbing up the wall.

The angle of view doesn't say much. The emphasis seems to be on the three posts (which by way of the roof line, are leading the view off the photo).

I love the color. The composition lacks a little; there's nothing that really grabs my attention. I'll go out on a limb and bet that if you would have moved to the right just a bit, the shot might have been a little more interesting. I would have liked to see a little more of the right side of the building. Nice photo though.

Alcatraz...."The Rock"

This would make a great panoramic. It feels like the bridge is more in focus than then island (especially in the lower right section).

With only a pipe for company.

I guess I don't understand the title (sorry). If my attention is supposed to be drawn to the pipe, you did a good job. As for the building part, well, there's not much there to judge on. Your composition is done well. It may not be screeming "look how well I fit the theme" but I still think it's a very good photo.

I like the way the door points to the splash of red. I haven't been impressed with too many of the door shots, but I like what you did with this one.
