Too much negative space in my opinion and the border distracts me, but the subject is very interesting and lovely.

Like the composition, it's only a little bit too dark for my taste.

There's not much wrong with this photo IMHO except maybe for the timing. It is slightly overexposed and the light, I would guess it's around midday, does nothing for the building. I would go back early morning/late afternoon, depending on the angle of the sun for a softer, more flatering light which would eliminate the shadows and bring out the lovely colour of the brickwork. Keeping an eye open for some nice clouds to add interest to the background would also be an idea. A suggestion would also be to place the building slightly more to the left and make use of the wall on the bottom right hand corner to lead the viewers eye into the picture. Hopefully, the location is close enough for you to be able to go back! Of course, you could always touch it up in Photoshop to saturate the colours etc, but IMO it is better to do as much in camera as you can and as little as possible on the computer. Good luck and let us know if you try this one again.

Nice shot, really like the use of negative space. Sharpness on the rings is very nice. Great idea and setup.

Well, I must say that this meets the challenge. It is a shame that this only got 3 comments during the challenge.

I'll have to agree that the border is too thick and does detract a bit. Also, there is no "WOW" factor in this. It's basically just the green and white.

Unfortunately, I can't think of anything to help this particular photo, as I think you have done the very best with this photo that you could.
