The site has some excellent tutorials on preparing a shot for a challenge in the Forums, Tutorials section.
In regards to fitting the challenge of Abandoned Buildings, the shot's main focal point falls on the people instead of the ruins in the background.
Hope this helps and isn't taken offensively as it surely isn't meant to.

Looks like a snapshot of your last trip in the desert. Main subject should have been the building/ruin in the background, not your friends. Any closer shot of the ruin would have been better.
Sorry, this seems more like a snapshot with the emphasis on the people and not on the building. I would have gotten closer to the building and if you absolutely had to have a person in for perspective, you might have limited it to one.
The contrast of the photo is a little low - there appear to be no colors darker than about 8-12% of full value. This could be fixed in about 3 seconds in Photoshop. I'm afraid the four guys wearing hats do nothing for the photo. We're a little too far away from the subject to see anything interesting about it. Even if the sky had been filled with a beautiful sunset, it would be hard to argue that the photo was about and abandoned building and the photo would not have worked well.
The subject matter is decent, but the composition is nothing special. Also, it really lacks in contrast and the sky (weather) could have been better captured at a different time.
