Default Reading Hindu Temple

I was waiting for the traffic to clear to take a shot... but it wasn't easy, finally I decided to take the shot with the single bus, I think it made the shot less boring since its "capturing the scene", any thoughts?

hitkaiser,

Yes, I thought I would see saffron-robed individuals with books by the title, then saw your location. The bus is a good thing, brings your eye back around the circle. To a soul in bleak wintry New York, this looks good. Hard to make it interesting, but your choice has a varied skyline, some bits of color, and a bus. Nitpicking: is the center island tilting? And roof on left?

Not too sure about this one. It seems to lack a focal point. Maybe I was thrown off by the title, too.

Thanx for the replies

The hindu temple is actually that warehouse on the right, its the most significant building there

It is slightly tilted as its just approaching the top of a looong hill

I agree with the focal point, im not really good at showing a building with its surrounding context
