This was an endearing image for it simple elements. The small stairs and the two small openings to the left of the image draw the eye towards that side of the picture while the somewhat empty space to the right give a certain weight to it. Kudos and congratulations.

This is an interesting design for a building. The circle in the open and wide sky draws the eye into the centre of the image. And the diamond pattern of the building is an interesting feature to view. Kudos and congratulations.

I love the lighting on this photo here. It hints the details of supports without giving too much away. And great use of the shadows too. The symmetry of the repeating columns works well with the image too. Kudos and congratulations.

For this contest, I am interested in seeing your black and white photos of buildings. Structures are all around us, yet showing them in black and white can bring out certain features of the building that may be less noticeable in a colour image. You can include images of the full building or focus on specific elements of the structure, but the photos must be in black and white.

I love the lines going through the image. They help the eye push upwards after noting the people in the bottom. (And the people in the bottom of the image help give the image perspective to the building. The highlights on the pillars work well too. Kudos and congratulations.

I love the lines on both the building and the ground here. They lead the eye through the image and over the building. The people give the image perspective and the sky makes the image perfectly dramatic. Kudos and congratulations.
