Really well composed shot Mike, and an original take on a very popular landmark. I love the slightly desaturated and grainy look, and you've done well to maintain such a large depth of field. If I had to make one very small criticism, it would be that the sky is slightly overexposed, and the top of the building gets a little lost in the sky. Nonetheless, an excellent photo - nice work!
Best regards,
Joel.

The one thing that is keeping this from being a excellent image is the lack of focus in my honest opinion.
The DoF is a little shallow as evident with the childs left eye out of focus (more than the rest of the image). The eyes actually look kinda odd - where they moving around? (child looking around but not moving the head)
If the eyes didn't look as they do, and if there was more sharpness to the image, this would be an excellent image.
I do like that you went to b&w though.

wow, that eye is hypnotizing and creepy and...it almost looks like a glass eye. nice composition and framing (except i would have liked to see the ears in full). love how you got right in there, right up close. and the light is absolutely stunning in the photo. really nice.

hi mike, i think yoiu could up the contrast and lower the brightness a bit on this one and it would render the black and whites a bit nicer.
best wishes. james

I agree with Dierk, you have the right idea with a forground object and show good composition skills by positioning it so the angles lead your eye into the frame towards your main subject, the lights on the building. I think the problem here is not your choice of foreground subject, but its size. I think if I were to re-shoot this scene, I would stand a little more to the right and get up on top of a bench or a car or anything (assuming its possible at the location). That way you could show about half that much flower box in the frame, the lighted building would become the largest object in the frame and really have a commanding presence, and you could eliminate some of the sky which is currently a little overpowering as a negative space.
I think you've chosen the perfect time of day for this shot and the exposure is dead on. Good color saturation as well. If you have the opportunity to re-shoot, experiment! :-) I think a little composition adjustment would take this image from great to amazing!

Having a foreground-object is often a good idea, but these flower-boxes do not look very nice. They drag my eyes away from the main object - the illuminated house. people`s silhouettes might have been a better choose.

Thanks for the comment jim. I finally got back to the states late last night. Regarding the picture, i was thinking of *gasp* cropping off basically the left half of the image.
; but i like being able to see the skateboard on the left. *shrugs* My desktop (and thus photoshop) is currently in trasnsit to San Jose, but hopefully once i get out there and settled I'll be able to process (and sort) the what i shot this summer w/ something other than iphoto.
take care yff.

I like it. I wasn't so sure after seeing the thumbnail. The subject is somewhat concealed, but I like the out of focus skaters in the foreground. It adds to the setting. Nicely seen.

Very nicely framed shot and great lights here, Mike! A little nitpick, I think I might have cropped off the bottom to the car's wheels, but that's just my opinion. Was this near Sacre Coeur?
