For me, this is a little dull in color and contrast. The angle is nice, though.

There is a lot of potential in this shot, but as it is, it doesn't work for me. The shape isn't right for a post card -- I'd crop the right side to remove that half window at the bottom and bring the gray building more to the center. The tree, the window boxes, and the lamps in the window of the gray building are very nice and could be featured more. The colors are too subdued, and the text is overpowering, but those are easy fix. Also, I'd clone out the cars at the bottom.

The text is distracting to the image and the tree in front seems a little out of focus for a postcard

I might have added a drop shadow or a stroke around the lettering; it gets lost in the image here.

I'm sorry, but if you're in NY, you could have picked SUCH better subject matter than this

Text is very hard to read. Should have put either an outline or dropshadow to bring it out of the background. I like the photo tho. Looks just like Dr. Huxtables house!

Catch me if you can!

I'm guessing that's an official in the background? Would have liked this much better with just the runner or with just other runners in view.
