Greetings from the Critique Club.
Hi Michal,
Congratulations on a new personal best. Well done. Helps make that new lens feel worth it.
An awesome perspective, although it takes a moment for the eyes to make sense of the it. I imagine you were near the very wide end of your focal range. You've got some nice interesting light and detail here. The focus looks a bit soft, which I think can largely be put down to the combination of your fast aperture and the huge depth of field in the image. I've found with my wide-angle that I get best results keeping the aperture between f/8 and f/10.
You sure have the Symmetry challenge covered, although it would have been better to have the far sides fo the image similar. My first thought was that a crop on the left would have done the job, but actually I really would have preferred a run of wall down the right edge to match the one on the left. I think this woul;d have served to draw the eye in on both sides, and really high-lighted the symetry in the image.
It is my hope that these insights are helpful and constructive. Please feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique. And please remember to mark it "Helpful" if you found it so. Good luck with future challenges.
Cheers
Paul |

| I thought this was an awesome perspective and gave it a 9 during the challenge. Great lighting, colors, and repeating lines. I can't understand why anyone would give this a 1 or 2, but maybe the presence of the person in the far right made it not symmetrical to them - I don't get it!!! Great job. |

| This is really great and a perfect shot for the challenge. The colours and composition are excellent. I have, if I may, a very minor criticism: I think if you'd cropped slightly tighter, cutting the person off on the right and the wall and people off on the left you would have had THE most perfect symmetrical image. Good luck, you'll do well with this anyway. |

| Awesome! Excellent subject. It's not quite symmetrical as it could be - the angle on the right is just a tad more open. Very nice entry. |

| I love this angle. Excellent example of symmetry. I also love how the light coming through the windows was captured. Great job! |

| nice lines and symmetry...too bad you couldn't have gotten a wall on the right side or a person on the left though |
