If it were up to me, this one would have been in the top 10, for sure! |

Greetings from the Critique Club, Ed.
Composition: Of course the angle is the most outstanding feature of the photo. I like it because it makes the photo different and interesting. I like that but it seems a bit unmotivated. It's not apparent why you chose the angle. I rotated it in my image editor and it looked rather boring in a normal angle. Also the subject doesn't seem to fit to that chaotic and strange angle. A bar a night with neon signs or something like that would have been better. However, the composition is good. The diagonals do their work and the clock in the corner is great.
Lighting: The photo looks a bit bland. I would like to see more contrast, especially in the pillars.
Focus: Some parts look a bit soft. I'm not sure of it comes from the aperture or from Neatimage, but the overall focus is ok.
Challenge: The photo sure fulfills the challenge theme. Now I have an idea why you possibly have used that angle. That diagonal composition makes it possible to "cram" much more of the church into the frame and thus visually filling the frame to a greater extent. If that really was your intention then I think it worked. But unfortunately your comments don't tell us your reason. When stirring up so much controversy, I think we deserve a denouement (is that the correct word?) ;-)
Creativity: Having the courage and trying such an unusual angle is creative in my opinion. I hope you aren't deterred by the score and stop doing such more "experimental" shots.
Good luck for your future challenges,
Stephan

Well, that seems to have polarised a few opinions, shooting at a funny angle. |

awesome angle. I feel dizzy and it really plays up the height. I also like your colouring choice..really complements your subject. |

Great contrast, and the composition is great. Nice angle and perspective, it's unconventional, and I like the clock in the corner |

Good exposure and subject. The tilt doesn't do a lot for me. There seems to be no reason for it. I don't think it enhances the image. |

To me, the color, contrast and composition were right on. What bothered me was the severe slant. Artistic or necessary to get the shot? |

The tones are quite nice. I just don't get this angle thing. |

Disturbing angle, very effective. I like how much of the building you've encompassed in the frame. Makes it seem ominous. Nice tones, too. The fact that they lean towards the dark side works very well with the mood. 8 |

Interesting perspective. I like the uniqueness of this shot. Disorientation is a good thing sometimes! LOL |

I like the clock in the top left corner. The picture almost made me dizzy when I first looked at it. Very interesting! |

I like the dramatic angle you used. It gives me a good sence of the size of the building but - even more important - makes it a very interresting photo. Great job! |

The angle doesn't enhance the image, in my opinion. |
