 Probably one of the hundreds of skyscraper shots. I really liked the orange v. blue and the repetition of the balconies v. the randomness of the clouds. Not sure why there was so much noise in the image as the ISO was only 200. Something isn't right about the composition, but I'm not sure what exactly.

Good perspective - lacks a bit of interest. Too much of the clouds would have cropped some out as it detracts from the perspective of the building.

That's a neatly managed composition! The colour of the building is in nice contrast with the sky. I love the feel this expression is giving

I like that you stepped away from the building and included more sky. Really gives a lot of height to the building.

I really like the sky in this picture. It is a well composed shot, but it doesn't really have anything that just jumps out at me.
