This image makes me very uncomfortable. Gun pointed right at me - finger on the trigger, and what appears to be light glinting off the nose of bullets in the cylinder. You definitely achieved your objective. What was done to assure the gun wasn't functional? I don't know if I would have been brave enough to stand there, shooting back with just a camera. On a photographic note, I'd consider two other croping options. One to a little below the hand and coat pocket, and the other just below the third button from the top. I think either of those would bring more attention to the gun and cowboy's eyes. |

I like the composition. Good sense of depth from the foreground and background elements, and good balance left and right. Your eye just gets drawn into the image. It has a very abstract feel to it. Until I read your description, I thought it might be industrial equipment - perhaps some sort of crane.
Thank you for your wishes for the New Year. Hopefully if we hang in for a few more months, we can put this crisis behind us. |

I like the sense of depth from the receding repetitive beams and columns. I'd consider croping out the first column, the cieling down to the dark horizontal line, and the sidewalk till just where the glass starts on the right. I think that eliminates a lot of area with little detail and helps emphasize the repeating beams and columns. |

I like the dramatic sky. The road does give you a leading line into the scene, but the road itself is rather featureless, and takes up a great deal of the image. I would consider making the sky the focus of the image by cropping about half way up the road, cloning out the post as Joe suggested, and adjusting contrast to make the sky stand out even more. |

The "star" of the show is the corner shot of the beautiful building. Too bad the taxi and the No Entry sign on the road are soo prominent. I'd consider darkening the sky , brightening the building (shadows slider in Lightroom would do it) and bringing out the texture in the brick to make the building more of the focus of the image. Possibly crop from the right to take out the light pole as well. |

The attached image is the "before" which was edited to create the "after" above. Note how strong the shadows are, exposure was 1/800, 5.6, iso 100. I knew when I took it that I was going to need to deal with the lighting, so I was careful not to blow out highlights. Exposure was biased -1.3ev. |
