Nice shot, and a good magazine cover, with a vertical format and space at the top that could carry type without spoiling the picture. |

I get a feeling of designed chaos from this picture. All the textures and shapes are great. At first, I didn't like how the post processing flatened out all the details, but as I have looked, I can see how they add to the purely graphic presentation. I think a stark contrast would make this more graphic. |

i really like your shot. the only thing that i could recommend, is possibly more tonal range. the composition is really nice. one of the better shots i've seen so far. |

Is this Disney Hall? It's a bit grey. Need more whites and blacks in the photo. I think perhaps a brighter day or a longer exposure on an f22 aperature. :) |

More contrast!!! I want to see dark black and whiter whites here but don't. :( The composition is very interesting however. |

A nicely composed image which would work well as a cover because of the obvious space for magazine title towards the top. The strong glare/ reflection on the metallic foreground is the main negative for me. |

Graphically interesting. Good composition. I had like to see how it was in color. |
