Greetings from the Critique Club.

I didn't get to this photo during regular voting but I would have given it a four.

This to me is an average looking snapshot. The snow and sky are over exposed. A blue sky if possible would be better.

This photo doesn't say travel to me. If the title said something like "Famous Tourist Attraction of Toronto" it might work a little closer to the theme but that's stretching it.

Other than the Canadian Flag the colors are very bland in my opinion. I would try to avoid shooting the sky if its gray almost white like this.

I'm just an amateur photographer so I couldn't tell you how to avoid the leaning building phenomenom other than take a picture somewhere else.

Good Luck in future challenges.

The angle looks really odd - both buildings appear to be leaning in towards each other - more prominently on the left. Did you take this with the camera pointed upwards? While the capture of detail on the buildings is good, the sky and snow are over-exposed, and the trees are soft looking.

Humbly, photo is clear but boring.

Poor connection to the theme, unbalanced perspective lines (deadly sin taking pictures of architecture) and the colouring being a bit bland with the grey buildings vs. an equally grey sky.

The tree in the upper left and right detracts.
