Critique Club Review:

Color Saturation and Hue: Colors are bright and natural.

Brightness and Contrast: Contrast is good, but brightness is a little dark.

Focus and Depth of field. Focus is nice and sharp. Depth of field is good for this image.

The angle of the building makes the horizon look tilted, but looking at the curb in the parkinglot, it appears you horizon is really level.

The area around the dirt is not very brightly lit. The subject in this photo has way too much competion. The bright yellow stair well captures the eye and holds it there. Almost everything else competes also. The sky, the balconies, even the cars compete with the dirt.

You have a good idea here, but I think if you got closer to the dirt, so that the perhaps just enough surrounding area to show that it is a parking place, and that it is very full of dirt. Make the dirt look large. As it is, you have to look at the picture a bit, to see that there really is a lot of dirt there.

Nice idea for a first entry.

Hope to see you back for more challenges.
