I really like the beautiful stone used in the construction of this tower. I also like the use of color in this photo, because the blue sky makes a dramatic background and contrast which enhances the color of the stone. You had a wonderful sky to work with - great blue.

In terms of composition, I think I would have cropped so that all of the balcony at the bottom was visible rather than "chopped off'. I think I also would have either included more of the left side of the building or cropped all of it out. I think in the original shoot, I would have shot this at several camera angles - one where the right side of the building was squared with the frame, one where the windows were squared (which would still give you the perspective of the lines converging as they get higher), and perhaps one from further away to give a better sense of the height of the tower.

Really neat clock. Overall a nice clean image. However, there are bubble like processing artifacts in the sky near the edges of the building. Perhaps just do noise reduction on sky only in separate level? It is also a joy to be able to see into windows. An 8.
