too snap-shotish and flat. Might want to try some curves to see if it can be fixed.

Comment by RolandB:
Colors are very muddy and detract from quality of this image. Focus too soft.

If the colors were more vibrant, this might be a more interesting image. To me, this is dull and lifeless.

The woman is too centered, there is too much sky
I like the palm coming out the edge of the frame.
The exposure is off, and the everything looks flat.

At 480x313 pixels, a lot of potential detail is lost. In the future, try and use the 640 pixels on the longest side to your advantage. Image is also only 115K - still had more file size to go. Use as much of the 150K as possible to reduce how much compression the shot gets.
The site has some excellent tutorials on preparing a shot for a challenge in the Forums, Tutorials section.
In regards to fitting the challenge of Abandoned Buildings, the shot's main focal point falls on the people instead of the ruins in the background.
Hope this helps and isn't taken offensively as it surely isn't meant to.

It seems to be more a photo of hikers... oh and by the way, there is a structure of some sort way off in the distance. Know what I mean?

Looks like a snapshot of your last trip in the desert. Main subject should have been the building/ruin in the background, not your friends. Any closer shot of the ruin would have been better.
