Well, must be this photo is not as good as I thought, that is the bottom of a BRIDGE, all concrete and about fifty feet above us when we took the pic (from the ground, I may add LOL). Had the zoom out on this one and cropped it, maybe I would have been better off to just use the original, but .......... Live and hopefully learn!! LOL
(I'm making an attempt to explain why I give any photo 3 or less. Obviously I won't like these photos, but DPC is a place to learn a) about what works in this environment and b) about what other individuals think. Please don't be despondant just because I don't like your shot. Rather than that, if your entry scored low, please try and understand one commentor's reasons.)
You have a nice idea here: showing how life will survive in the most unlikely places. However, sometimes good concepts don't turn into good visual images. The shrub is almost lost in the shade of the roof, taking away a lot of the visual impact of the shrub jutting out of the building. The sky is okay, but not special, meaning that a lot of the physical space is quite boring. Actually, the sky is a part of nature in a way that the building isn't. Yet, the building has more texture and is more interesting than nature. This goes against the intention of the photo. If you had waited until the sky was beautiful, your meaning would have been strengthened so much.
For me, I find the large object on the left side distracting and the angle makes me feel like I'm about to topple over. I keep turning my head to the right so I can see this with the tree and sky in a more "normal" position.
