At first i didn't like that the small house had nicer values in the grayscale, but there's something to be said conceptually about the smaller house having richer values.

The exposure is pretty far off -- the whole right side is over exposed. In the future, there are a couple of things to try: if your camera has exposure lock, set the exposure on the right side, then re-frame the image to compose it the way you want. Also, it looks like you were shooting into the sun. You could stand on the opposite side of the big building (with the sun at your back). This would also have the effect of exaggeration -- making the big building look bigger and the small building look smaller.

Brilliant title, great juxtaposition, excellent photo save for the over brightness on the right hand side of the tall building.

the glare on the right side of the frame is distracting

I don't quite like the glare from shooting with the backlight.
