The old church, the reflection and the impressive shape and colour of the building all combined to make this the shot I had to submit.

Not an original idea and that's what bugs me. I suspect this is one of 300 similar shots. Ah well, all my other attempts at a better perspective failed.

Yes, I KNOW that damned wire is distracting! I hate that wire. I walked around that building for an hour, climbed fences, went over walls trying to get the church and the building without the wire. Easy to get rid of, but only outside of the basic editing rules

Interesting picture. It's nice and it has good perspective.

I really think you should have cut out the reflection of the ivory building on your main subject and then cropped out the actualy ivory building on the left. They are both very distracting.

I like the perspective, but I find the wire and the building on the left side to be distracting.

This is a very cool building! I would have cropped out the building on the left though.

Classic approach. Too bad about the line across the middle and I'm not sure if the yellow building and its reflection add interest or distract. I really like the tiny office lights that come through. I wonder waht is would be like more toward dusk?
