I haven't entered a challenge in a VERY long time, and I want to get back into my photography, so here's this.
I know it's not the greatest, but it a was sort of last minute thing and I'm looking forward to seeing what people have to say.

I see this is your first submission in a very long time.... Welcome back! Your image does definitely meet the challenge and is well-composed with an interesting point of view. Your problem, as you probably already know, is the lighting. I'm guessing this is early morning and you were facing East. (or later afternoon and you were facing West). The bright sun is causing your scene to be mostly back-lit, causing some harsh shadows and the sun flare. I personally like sun flares, but a lot of people here do not seem to share my preference. If you had moved to one side or another, the shadows would have added an interesting dimension to the image. You might also have been able to capture and emphasize some very interesting reflections in those wonderful full-length windows. A different aperture would have still emphasized the building, but softened the background a bit, and added to the interest. As I said before, welcome back...

having more of an interesting subject like a person or ranger vehicle would have helped.

Looks like any old building....a much tighter crop, preferably with some identifying feature would've made this much more interesting.

Security with courtesy - Much patience is needed for this duty! Cool perspective, but difficult lighting - 5

I like how you went with a low perspective. But the lack of details in the shadows seems to be detracting from the image.
