Greetings from the Critique Club...
Interesting image. What I like best is the detail you captured on the roof and how you enhanced it in PP. By itself it would make for a good texture image in it's own right.
As for the rest of the image, it looks fine however the grass kinda bugs me to be honest. I can see you did a lot of burning but I don't understand why you did more of it on the right side and not the left. If you wanted to leave in some detail I think you shouldn't have burnt the grass tips so much that way there wouldn't be that harsh transition in the grass.
Overall, the image is good. I think you did as much as you could to bring out it's appeal. However, I feel that appeal was simply limited. What might have produced more appeal would be to have more of the roof in the shot (wider angle?) and if there was a cross up there to have it in the shot as well. I just don't feel that these windows have enough appeal to carry the shot by themselves. Maybe if they were stained glass that would have been a different story.

| I love how the roof and the grass seem flat. 7. |

| I love the effective understatement of the gothically arched windows. If it were not for them, you could have substituted 'cottage' for 'church' in the title. |

| Interesting subject and good texture. I might like to see the wall darkened up a bit as it seems a bit overexposed and it might be neat to do a tight crop on the windows. Nicely done. |

| Very pretty. The white backround seems slightly washed out under the middle window. |

When I first glanced at this, I thought someone was standing inside, behind the middle window....a bit spooky. But on closer examination, I realized it was just the window on the other side of the church.
lol - guess I need my glasses adjusted. |

| The windows are pretty. Not overly exciting though. |

| Not sure if it is slightly out of focus or if it's the post processing creating that effect. The textures are nice but it is sort of a bland photo with not a lot of interest. |

| I like this for it's simplicity. Nice lines in the composition. The repeating pattern with the windows works well. Borders are usually a give or take with me. In this case a border might have helped to "contain" the image some. Just a thought. Good luck in the challenge. |
