Hey there from the Critique Club

My thoughts on the image: I like the leading lines you created with this composition. It serves as a terrific guide for my wandering eye. It grabs me, leads me in, thus leaves me with enough interest to explore the remainder of the image.

My ideas for improvement: I'd really, really like to see more interest in the sky. I think that even some contrast adjustment may have added enough drama to make it more appealing. I also think that I'd like to see your point of view moved either a little higher or a little lower to change the line of mountains that are behind the building. My eye wants to see those either above or below the building. It is a bit distracting running through the main focal point of the image.

Where I would have/did score this entry: I did not vote in this particular challenge, but this would have drawn a 5 from me. I do think that it fits the challenge well, and there are some nice strengths in your capture. With a more dramatic or colorful sky and a different point of view, I believe that this one could have easily grown the vote.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric

I like the POV in this shot. Pretty heavy on the water, though.

I like the landscape, but the manor and the fountain (?) are lacking in detail.
