Hello From the Critique Club

Im not sure which is your first name Aznym or Adam (so forgive me for that)

Your image has very good detail and sharpness, focus good
I also like the Black and white, good choice
Overall a good image
To me, however, it doesn't say 'Balance' as the number of windows are uneven each side.
If you had cropped it so that, either two or three windows were each side and had the corner of the building in the centre it would even it up
Also the way you have the top cropped on one side makes it appear uneven
Another idea from me is maybe if you had taken a photo of just the windows all the same in a row it would be balanced ( just a thought for next time)as the windows are interesting in themselves

So technically a good image but I think the reason why it scored average to low was that it just does not say 'balance' and that's what the people wanted.
There was also some very good images in this challenge
The idea with D P C is the 'Wow' factor that gets the votes I M H O
There are many really great images that score average
So I hope this helps and if you have any questions you can P M me
Keep up the good work!
Regards
Sally

I love the starkness of this image. The lighting is awesome. The composition really enhances the solidity of the stone. It infers balance in a really sublime way. The border adds to the image also by creating a "window" through which to view the scene. The artistry of this shot is in the fact that you have not only portrayed but enhanced the architecture of the building so beautifully.

Just not enough balance for my taste but a good architectual image all the same.

I think the crop should of showed the exact number of windows to inhance the feeling of balance. Clean shot, good luck.
