Greetings from the Critique Club
This is a beautiful example of "found" photography. On a personal level, I'm glad to see it's a gas stove, not electric - I'm very partial to cooking on gas stoves :)
Strong points of the image: The composition is good, the stove stands out even with all the business of bricks and windows and lines in back of it. The colours are harmonious, and pleasing (although I've always wondered why anyone would use either "mustard" or "avocado" for appliace colours).
It meets the challenge, that is, it follows the ROTs.
I'm wondering about the post-processing. You do not say anything about it in your notes, but it looks either tone-mapped or edited with S/H in some way. Whatever you did, it works here.
My own favourite detail of the whole image is little dancing figurine in the window behind the stove. It gives the image a joyous quality, sort of like, "The range is outside, but I'm still dancin'!"
Something that might improve the image (hard to tell if it would, but it's worth trying) is to take it more right on, that is, not so much at an angle, so that both the sidewalk and bricks to not go smaller towards the right.
I hope this helps. If I can be of further help, please let me know.
