Greetings from the Critique Club :)

I like the stark contrast between the light sky and the dark wall. However I feel the whole photo is a little too dark. I understand the necessity of the darkness to keep the mood and yet at the same time I crave something other than the glow from the sky to look at.

The perspective and angle of the shot is wonderful. I like the distance it implies.

Overall, a very nice shot. It is only personal preference that asks for a lighter foreground.

Don't really appreciate the language, but I like the photo a lot.

...have resulted in a great texture and interesting subject matter. If you ever get a decent sunset this would add a lot to the scene, filling in the white sky and be a more iteresting twist on actually taking pictures of the sky/ sun only. Depends which way the wall faces though

Great shot... love the title!!!!

The state of the wall/building is probably more due to 50 years or more of shitty maintenance but i will take your word for it :) Nice composition. The blah color of the sky doesn't help the image but it helps you meeting the challenge :) 6 Journey

not a good title
 04/17/2003 02:05:22 PM
the whiteness of the sky isn't offering any texture to the picture, but I do like the angle/composition.

Very poor title, but a great picture!

The photos fine but i don`t care much for the title.
 04/15/2003 09:21:08 AM
Well the title says it all I guess! Weather beaten and in need of a few coats of paint! Good idea, original and very well done!

50 years of shitty weather, brilliant title.
 04/14/2003 11:19:27 PM
LOL, love your Title. What is that a picture of? Looks like just a wall.
 04/14/2003 11:14:58 PM
You've captured and conveyed a moody image. I like the perspective here with the green bench as an accent. The grey sky is a plus, too.

It does look like sh---- weather. And you captured a nice grey surrounding to emphasize it. Good photo. A 9.

Great title!

i'm not one of the more prudish charaters on this site but even I feel there was no real need to swear here. It's not affecting your mark from me but I think others might take it into account...

Very nice photo of a weathered building but the title takes away, kind of gives it a negative feeling.
