I think this is a cut above architectural shot, like the tone and contrast is gradual, the one hot spot of sun reflection draws your eye back to the building, the angle is neat and you either used wise dof or blurring to make you know its a sky in the back, but doesn't detract from the building. Close to the perfect shot.

hi glenn, what makes this appealing to the eye is the colour blend any other choice would have produce a bland shot . my only critique which sticks out a mile is the sky and its blending via a layer. it softens the roof edges of the building . also i that overexposed spot becomes distracting. on the whole as i said above the colour really does help for pleasant viewing.

Hi Mark, Thank you so much for your contstructive comments. Very interesting for all us to get diverse critiques - this is a great idea from usefilm.
I recently bought photoshop CS2 and I might need to tone down my prehaps over zealous first attempts. I am hearing from lots of good comments than somtimes subtle is best.
I am working today but look forward to visiting your site soon
Kind regards Glenn

I like the lines, patterns, and eprspectives in this very much. I don't think there are too many lines here. There are some non-parallel lines in there that kind of mess with the apparent perspective, which is interesting.
I like the light flare at the intersection of the roof and wall (I assume that is added?), though it seems like a slightly unnatural location for it. It does call attention to the junction of planes, which is effective, I think.
As purely a matter of taste, I don't like the red tint much, though others will. As a positive, the tint lends it a sort of retro look that seems to go with the architecture (post FrankLloydWright).
Something in the lighting looks unnatural (which might be your intent) but I can't quite put my finger on it. Perhaps the sky wants to be brighter? Perhaps it's the light fall-off to the left side of the roof?
This critique not withstanding, you've shown this architecture to great advantage and I expect the architect would very much like what you have done. Excellent work!
Mark

i think this totally works and disagree that it is too busy...i think the lines are very clean and the cluds are striking yet not taking away at all from the building because of the muted colour of the sky. The flash of light also just adds something special to the picture.

Thanks very much for your comments Jeanette and I appreciate eveything you say. Will take your ideas or board for future. Wanted to get a surreal feel to this one rather than just another straight shot. So thats why I altered the colours and focus a bit. I sometimes find including too much or too little to be an issue hard to decide upon...less is more quite often though I guess. Love your work and thanks again. CU Glenn

Just an awesome perspectve and you captured it right in this composition. The different lines just brought such interest to me and makes me woder around the picture seeing where these lines guide me. Keep up the good work.

I like the building it self, but i think this shot is too occupied....too many lines and details to look at. I had done a harder crop OR choosed aother angle. For me the red tone is not so good. But thats just a matter of taste.
