I like the angle of the shot I think I would have stepped back a bit to get the other tower in the whole way, good focus and lighting, good story telling ability, thanks for sharing!!

Very nice composition! The colors are great, as well the lighting and sky background. Focus is spot on and love the details in this awesome Synagogue!

This is a beautiful building and it really stands out against the cloudy sky. I like the clarity and focus in your photo.

Initial impact what a wonderful building. Lighting is good, bright sky. Structure presentation. Color harmony is good. Center of interest the twin towers. Cropping is good, I would usually like to have had both complete towers showing. Focus is good. Depth of field not in effect here. Story telling is in the artist's notes and title.

This picture has had some major resturation done to it. There were some wire that draped across the building. I have had very little good luck with the healing tool near other objects. What I find works best is to take the clone tool first along the building. Make the clean cut on both ends of the wire. Then if you want you an use the healing bush, but most of the time I continue to use the clone tool like the healing tool.

I collect pictures of just plan no clutter skies. I take them with clouds shot from many different directions. When such a situation come up I remove the sky out of the photo and add a lay with the new sky. Once finished and are happy with it, flatten the shot because you can't go back.

Good effort in what you were attempting to do. But it is pretty obvious.

To review this I have looked for:
Initial Impact.
Texture.
Lighting.
Technique.
Framing.
Light & Shading.
Story Telling.
Colours.
Difficulty of shot.
In my estimation, I believe this to be a 4.5 star rating. The trees are in the way. Better shot would be the entrance.Personally I think this is a monstrosity compared with your liittle 10 seater. 5 Mil wasted I say.

This is an elaborate looking building. Good detail in the brickwork.
Good notes. It's a huge place. How sad they find it necessary to segregate the men and women.
Shame you had an overcast day for this photograph.
I think I would have cloned out the security camera in the front.
Thank you.

Compositions nice. Beautiful building. Good colours. detail is good. However its slightly out of focus. Top of spires missing. Wouldve been nice to see both tops as they are the most attractive feature along with patterned brickwork. Clonings not been finished. Very obvious. I dont know if its just me but the skys very blotchy.

The line of this building are lovely with lots of detail coming through in your photo. The color is nice , framing nice. However the sky looks a little oddly shaded.

This is a very nice building and the photograph is pretty well done. But what have you done to the sky. It's all blotches and the spires look like they have been dodged and it's very distracting. Also is there more to the image at the top? The spire at the top of the left is cut off and are they part of the building or some kind of communication device. If they are not necessary then take them out but this needs to have been cropped better. It's the little details that grab your eye and take the attention away from an otherwise great photo. Retouching needs to be believable and not obvious or it should have been left alone. There are masking techniques that might have solved your problem better. Thanks for sharing.
