Taken shortly after sunset outside Leeds Town Hall. Was really upset to see a white 'dot' on the ground as I had spent 10 minutes picking up all the rubbish around but this bit must have blown back into the shot :o(

Natalya,

I gave this a 7 during voting, I do like the composition and the colors but I think that the bright interior lights just took something away from this shot for me. Don't get me wrong this is still a well above average shot, now that I've seen your outtake I may have gone with the b/w shot if it were me. This still rocks!

the border seems too thick, I'd like to see more building

Good composition although a tad over processed for my taste. Don't know if the big frame was needed although it does tend to pull you into the picture.

This shot has a cool feel. I love the light and the burgundy tones. Great title. A little heavy handed on the border IMO.
