Hey cool I have been there but that was years a go before I even new about digital. Good photo! Brings back memories. I have a picture of a aligator thats really unique that I took while I was there. I remeber having to start from bottom and going to the top and all the while looking at huge glass of aquariums.. It is huge!

Very well layed out shot. Pity that the weather man didn't provide us with chrystal clear skys of some interesting color to be refelected about in all that glass.

NIce subject matter. Interesting shot and like it. Could bring up the levels, but that's just me. Good work.

Great subject. It has a hazy feel to it, either from the natural light or from trying to brighten a bit too much in PS?

Try UV and or Polarisers to cut the haze and make your picture look more lively

Overexposed. Try bring the ISO setting down. If this was taken on auto play around with the manual setting. Downcast skies gives the light a hazy brightness. This should help out with the contrast.

Great take on this week's assignment, but it would have been even better if the sky wasn't so washed out.

great angles but there are exposure problems here. did you try a zooming in a bit?

I've no idea, though arguably the primary compositional element of this is the non-right angles. It seems to lack contrast, and depth for me though, which is more damaging to your score. Makes it look washed out, and it loses any immediacy.

use a haze filter or increase contrast in software

An exceptionally well taken picture. You had to be perfectly level and square to the subject, great job. Too bad about the haze, but we can't have everything. 9
