Interesting structure. I find the bit of red building and tree/bush on the left detracts from the building for me.

Greatperspective and I like the backlighting for this image as usually, a place like this is sun-blasted. Good work!

Tremendous looking building !! The slightly washed out look to the picture helps to convey a sense of heat, dessert and isolation - but I suspect that's it not any of those :- )

My only nitpick is the red building behind the trees drawing the eye away. Otherwise nice shot.

nice job

This is a tough shot, The sky is washed out and the building appears dull and loses some interest to me.

Nice perspective.

Beautiful composition. A little blown out in the clouds (though that may be personal preference), and I would've liked a little more brighter midtones. Good shot.

Low vote, church has soft subtle lines but the sky is sharp and high contrast. Would have liked to see more of a frontal view and less side view as side is dull and unappealing

Good picture, but the perspective is a touch too severe for me and the clouds are a little blown-out. I'd like to see some other shots from this session.

I'm not sure that the time of day helped you much on this shot. Perhaps more horizontal light (morning / evening) would have made more dramatic highlights and shadows to bring defintion to the architecture here. It seems a little flat as is.

Nice angle on the shot, the building is a little soft but that may have been your intent. 6

An interesting angle on this structure, but overexposed with respect to the sky. That leaves the shot feeling a bit washed out. About the only way I know to compensate for a bright sky like that and still keep the light correct on your subject is to use filters of some kind, and I'm not familiar enough with them to tell you how to use them. I still think it's a really cool angle.
