This is a lovely shot overall, the clarity is wonderful, the DOF is fantastic. The only thing that bothers me a bit is the perspective, one moment the building looks like it's about to fall on you and the next it's about to fall away, which actually is kind of cool! The flowers are distracting on the bottom, a tighter crop would have gotten you another point from me. :)

Nice symmetrical composition. The foreground flowers are a nice touch. But the image is very soft; it really needs some sharpening.

Very nicely composed and framed image. Well done. A little more contrast would make the image stand out more.

Skillful photograph with both the foreground and background in focus. I would like to see a lighter image with truer white.

The hall is an interesting building, and the foreground flowers really set it off. Great depth of field - was this a wide angle lens?

Nicely framed, I like it.

Nice composition, especially with the two tees at the sides and the flowers at the bottom creating a natural frame.

base 1: 1/1; challenge: 2/3; technical: 2/3; aesthetics: 1/3; total: 6
Urban landscapes -- description called for "buildings" -- a bit picky, but I see only one. I don't get the sense of 'urban' here. The photo seems off center or asymmetric without meaning to. You should have been a couple more steps to the right to look squarely through the door and then make sure you are equidistant between the edge of the photo and the towers on both left and right. Sky upper right is blown out too -- not bad enough to knock off another tech point though. I like the flowers in the foreground. Nice touch.
