Taken on a work trip to Tbilisi earlier this year. Whilst my colleagues went to drink beer I disappeared into the suburbs. Don't worry - I got my beer later.

Tbilisi is the most amazing city for architecture and I could have chosen quite a few images for this challenge. Many were just beautiful views over the city. However, I thought I'd pick one that is (hopefully) going to be a little atypical. I suspect it won't be to everyone's taste but for me it captures what I found in the city that afternoon.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

First things first ... I'm glad you did eventually get that beer. :)

Theme: In terms or architecture, your image definitely covers a lot of bases. From steel girders to the crumbling brick you've captured the mix of old and new. That being said this is a tough picture to compete with the classic shots of buildings and bridges submitted in this challenge.

Image: I love the earthy colors of this image and how you've shown the steel supports holding up the older failing walls of the previous age. The bits of green popping out add contrast and the soccer players at the end draw the eye. You've framed them perfectly between the supports and the depth creates interest. Lots of detail shown in the textures of the various materials and the neglect of the chair offsets the life in the children.

All in all this is a great image and I am struggling to offer constructive feedback. Forced to pick something I would say its possibly a bit busy (there is a lot going on) but again I like it so ...
