Very urban AND you have the plants for your landscape, PERFECT! :)

The cropping on this is close to perfect for me, I think I would have liked to seen the top of the windows though and the top is a little blown out as they say, in the center, a touch of contrast and brightness adjustment would have really made this shot pop.

This picture is cool But its a bit overexposured, then again mabey you wanted it like that. I dont know if I like the cropping or not Would like to see a picture with both windows uncropped, good luck

Interesting shot - the rough looking building with the plants. Kind of symbolic of life and death, good and bad.

I wish the windows weren't cut off at the top. This could also use some color adjustments, a few degrees of CW rotation, and USM.

Nice attempt.

Well spotted - ah! the cold war "duck and cover" mentality and all that. Interesting that those signs are still in place. What did you do in PP just spotted that yellow flower pot - lurid colour.

Does anyone still believe a fallout shelter will save them? Nice contrast between the brick, flowers and weathered metal.

Nice composition and I like the idea. Too bad this shot is so overexposed. Could have worked in B&W too.
