Nice idea...wish there were more of the church in view and the framing is unsure. Good title, too

The deep sepia obsures the details that are available in this image. By lightening the tone, the detail will emerge and the veiwer doesn't need to work to capture the feel, mood, emotion that should come easily. (By the way, IMO)

Tight crop, kind of crooked and too dark to be able to see the details and textures from the building

I like the tree on the left. I would have cropped out the lampost because the right tilting of the dome of the church and the left tilting of the post seems very distracting.

Cropping away 1/3 of the left side tree and eliminating the Lamppost completely might have made the tilt of this image less noticeable.

Good image but composition dasn't work for me. I feel this was cropped to tight. I would like to have ssen the top of the building.

I don't like the way the vertical lines lean torward the center. Although the building is the main subject, there's nothing that grabs my attention.

This is a super-cool building and perfect for this challenge, but I think the slanted horizon and the tree and light post detract from it. I think I would've looked for a better angle, maybe from in front of the tree on the right, and taken a vertical frame to try to get the top of the church, as well.

I like the composition with the tree on the left and lamp on the right, but I hate how the top of the building is cut off... Also, the sky is a bit blank and could use some life. Nice subject matter though. It looks like an interesting building to photograph.
