| Thanks Bill, was just wondering what's wrong with it and you helped explain it. Appreciate you taking time out critiquing it. |

Hi Mansoor,
This is Bill Banning comment as part of the DPC Critique Club. We're all caught up on current challenges and now a few of us are taking on more recent requests that didn't get covered. So..
This is a competent photo that shows a building for what it is. Your timing worked well to avoid distracting elements in the shot and as Melethia commented, the mirrored cars are a cool part of the setting. The exposure is right on and the afternoon (or morning?) light is good, too. For me, what's lacking is any compelling interest other than the building itself. There's also some typical wide angle distortion going on (both the converging verticals at the far sides and some central distortion causing the image to appear to be bulgiing outward. This can be fixed in current versions of LR or PS or even with Adobe Camera Raw. But the bottom line is that even if the distortion were completely gone, it there's still not much interest in just a straight on shot of a building, even a beautiful historic one like this. |
