Hello from the Critique Club-
Upon looking at your photo, I’m struck by how gigantic this structure appears, and this is owing to your composition. The slight angling really adds a lot of grandness to this shot, and makes it feel as though it stretches off into eternity. I also thoroughly like the texture you have captured on the surface itself. This texturing, which causes a variation in tones, really keeps the viewer focused on the structure and not distracted by elements in the background. This effect is also aided by the darker sky. It seems as though the processing was a smidge excessive due to the fashion that some parts of the clouds have turned into “dust.” This is forgivable, especially since the sky is secondary in your shot. Lastly, I do like that the tree is nicely framed by the arch, it’s a nice touch to an already great shot.
