I gave it a nine, it made me say "wow". But I wonder if people are put off by the vertical white space. Having the very dark, and then the really bright white in columns actually pulls the eye up and out of the photo. So it actually is a little uncomfortable. At first glance, I didn't like that composition. But I actually think it's one of the strengths. You are forced to look back and explore it more.

I think this would be quite spectacular printed very large.

Compositin with the shadow as the focal point

I really liked this a lot, at first, but a small, nit-picky thing, kept bothering me. I wish you would have straightened this along the roof edge. A perspective correction would have made it a little too perfect and would have taken away some of the charm. But the roof edge going up, such a small amount, comes across as more of a mistake than an intentional choice. Straightened it along the top or the edge of the roof would still have the vertical bars a bit wonky, but would be easier on the eye. 9 for the find. 8 for the processing.

(feel free to disagree. It's when I find something that I like a lot, I try to figure out what I like and what I don't. It's so much easier to critique someone else's work. :) But that helps me be more critical of my own.)
