Nice composition and detail. I really like the sky. I wish the image as a whole wasn't quite so gray -- a little more contrast might have helped with that.

The grey tones look a bit washed out. I think this needs more contrast to emphasize the decay. 8.

Nice image, but I wish the Parthenon and surrounding rubble weren't so mid-tone grey. I think that in post-processing you should have selected just the stone and lightened it up so as not to blow out the sky. This is a nice shot with great composition but I think it could greatly benefit from a bump in contrast.

Wonderfull shot, I really like the composition and subject. It seemes a bit over exposed and could benifit from a levels adjustment. This would enhance the detail in the clouds, and the columns.

Very nice with the impression of oldness behind it.

For me, the lack of tonal range in the building itself hurts this photo. Nice composition, but just lacks any real punch.

I really like this shot, but it seems a little black. To me, it just screams out for a strong contrast enhancement :)

the black & white makes it feel appropriately old. I like the composition to. 7.

Is it too flat?

This is great! The angle is perfect for this shot, dramatic sky.

Nice. Would've personally tried to get the shadows a bit deeper, but it's a grand sight anyways. 8/10
