Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Wonderful focus. The windows and corners are all very crisp and make for one of this image's major strengths.

Lighting: The lighting was a bit too harsh for this image. Looking at your settings, I think that it would have helped if you had cranked that aperture down a bit.

Composition/Content: The composition of this image is much stronger and better that the original submission. The lines and corners of the windows work very well to bring the viewer's eye up and into the frame, as well as hold interest.

My Opinion: While it is a far cry from the original, it is far better. Studying both images closely, I can't even make a relation between the two. However, this is a greatly improved image that scored pretty close to its potential.

I couldn't find your original (I did look!), so I'll comment/vote on it's own merit.

I like the angle and reflection. The box works well, but the reflection looks a bit blown out.

Hard to get the exposure just right with this sort of image. The reflections off the centre part are just a little blown IMO.
