Thanks, for all the comments, I messed up with the text but really did not know what I was doing I had only had PS for about 2 days at the time. In hindsight I should have left it off. But hay! thats what I am here for, to learn by my mistakes.. With all your help of course

I think this would look better with some perspective correction and different text/font color and placement.

nice photo - but the text and font really don't work well. You would have been better to leave it off

Beautiful, the colors look a bit washed out though. But it general is a postcard ready to be on a stand.

Beautiful shot! The text could be better: font, leading, and justification.

The composition is great, but you may want to rethink the text. It is very pixelated and the purples just seem out of place. Score: 5.

This is going to sound incredibly picky, because it's a very, very nice image of the cathedral, but the text bugs me a bit. I wish the bottom line of text were left-aligned with the top line of text. As for the image, well, it's really nice with excellent detail in the shadows. Good job.
