I really like the composition. The only thing I can think of is that personally I feel there is a lack of contrast because there are very few shadows. I can't tell if it is because it was a cloudy day, or if it was around noon, or maybe both. I would love to see this subject at early morning/late evening. when the stairs cast long shadows. Great eye for subject though, sometimes I wish I lived near more interesting things

love the composition, I agree with Ben, I think the time of day would make the colors a lot more vibrant and add some dramatic shadows. Early morning probably. The sky is a bit blown out, and I think time of day will change that. Or maybe using a lower ISO?
