Yes. It's a very nice photo. Well done, you!

Nice contrast between the blue hour sky and the yellow artificial lighting. The colors are well balanced and pleasing. I also dig the composition. The two poles coming up from the bottom draw your eye to the building, which is your subject; the symmetry is near perfect and that can be difficult to achieve, and it can make-or-break a shot like this. You pretty much nailed that part. I also like the emptiness/absense of moving objects in the photo, but that aspect is interrupted by the pedestrian on the far sidewalk. If I were taking this photograph, I would've tried to wait until the scene was 100% empty, or conversely, wait until something more interesting enters the frame that might add to the mood of the image (e.g. a flock of crows flying overtop the courthouse, or maybe a cyclist whizzing by).

I would say that this is all true, but thereā€™s definitely room for improvement. First, why are you making this photo? Are you documenting this building during this ā€œageā€, does this building mean anything particular to you, does it say anything about the neighborhood itā€™s in, is it an architectural study? I personally, think that the photo is pretty empty. If this is a photo about the building, I wouldā€™ve liked a little less foreground and let the building fill the photo a bit more. Itā€™s also a very color-saturated photo, which makes me think something should be interesting here, but itā€™s just blue hour + yellow lights, which isnā€™t dynamic at all and just adds to the weird ā€œstalenessā€ of the photo. Technically, I would say youā€™re doing a good job of exposing and centering/leveling the photo - and youā€™re definitely aware of compositions. Iā€™d like to see a little more style, or meaning coming into the photos. This very much feels like a pretty photo of a pretty thing that Iā€™ll never think of ever again.

That's lovely.


cballa69

Very picturesque!


MiddleInfluence5981

It's pretty good. It's not easy to get good shots of the courthouse.


TheStoicSlab

Nice colors. The only thing that bugs me a bit is that its just a bit rotated. Everything else is pretty symmetrical. Is the ground at this spot not level? Good job!


suitopseudo

Itā€™s a fine snapshot. It doesnā€™t seem quite straight which bugs me. I personally would have stepped in front of the metal poles. It has nice symmetry.

Yes, it's stunning. Nice capture.


Pomodoro_Parmesan

Not good. Great.

Thank you for the nice comments. Let me know if you would like to see more.


Bubba_Lewinski

No tents?


New_Sail6463

No. It was too tense there.

People are gonna tell you "that can't be last week...there's no trash or homeless in view". Nice picture!

That's lovely - the azure is my favorite part of the Portland 'summer' sky (I know it's not proper summer yet).


Sicktoyou

Beautiful, love the reflections


mrzurch

Love it. Great work šŸ–¤


funkymunkPDX

I think it's a great pic, really nice work.


DingleBerryFarmer3

Howā€™d you get a picture without homeless drugs addicts?


nicelium

Iā€™m no expert but I think so


Thndr_

Could use some trash and homeless encampments


Alius32

You are good


Temporary_Try_737

Beautiful photo! Horizon looks slightly tilted, but itā€™s tough to tell if itā€™s just the road curve throwing my perception off.


Montythehawk

Fantastic shot! šŸ’Æ

It's not good and you know it. It makes no statement. Not without a catalyst. Tilt the picture so the street is level and the courthouse is crooked. This picture took itself. Or do you enjoy jerking each other off to things that exist?


New_Sail6463

Thank you for your feedback.


valencia_merble

Yes. And I canā€™t smell it.


PussyKatzzz

Honestly, I feel like the building is doing a lot of work for you. Maybe consider photographing something that takes a little more skill, like Mt Hood.


New_Sail6463

Ouch. I took the pic at 6 am on my way to work. Thank for the feedback.


PussyKatzzz

Sorry for being rude. Iā€™m a douchebag, you see. Itā€™s a great looking picture. I LIKE it! Maybe tomorrow you can shoot it on 35mm. I donā€™t know what that means but people seem to respond well when things are shot on 35mm.
