Greetings from the Critique Club

Great subject matter here. I like the interesting tone of the orange and the yellows scattered on the stonework. You showed this very nicely.

A couple of criticisms...I understand the way you tilted the camera to achieve an effect of exagerrated heigh but this does not work here for two reasons. One, there are no verticals that are parallel to the frame. Also, the top of the building is just cut-off to that there is no breathing room. Try to include not just the whole building but also some part of the sky above it to balance out the photo. My last bit of criticism is that it seems to focus is off.

Good photo, nice attempt. Next time you get over there try again. Good luck!

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to PM me.

As a pure photo, I would have gotten a little more in at the top, rather than cutting it off. And, if there were a young lady with long hair up on one of the turrets, or in a window - then you wouldn't even need the title to explain what was going on. Interesting architecture though.

And where is the hair? :-))))
Nice idea, the perspective is strange, though.

Looks like the camera needs some guide lines in the viewer. the tilt of this image is crying out to be corrected in editing software. The image itself is also unsharp.

I understand where you're going with this, but having a model that was actually *letting* down some hair would have done wonders for this photo. Now, I *know* that it'd probably be impossible to get someone up there, but I really feel that it doesn't tell the story you want it to without that element.
