| working within the limitations of the inevitable distortion from looking up, you've chosen to make the bottomost step a true horizontal. Unfortunately there's now no "defining vertical" here. As a rule, these work better if you have a defining vertical, and the natural choice here would be the vertical between the doors. This would also bring a true horizontal to the topmost step. All this is a cropping/rotation issue. The problem could have been minimized at the time of exposure, with a tripod and some careful alignment. |

Firstly,thanks for the mention :)
Good to see that you put your own spin on this..the eye is nicely drawn to the door by the use of the steps and handrail in the composition.
What may hurt you is that the desat is harder to notice in these type of buildings which tend to be a natural grey colour anyway.
A way round this may have been to take the colour out of the door but leaving it in the glass reflections.
Hopefully, that won`t matter too much...good luck.

| Intriguing idea, and I don't see that leaving the door itself still coloured fits the process ... after all, Gordon didn't keep his window frames coloured ... I don't think. It's not, i think, strng enough compositionally of itself, this image, and the challenge connection will take a number of folks more work to find than they're going to be willing to put in. |
