Is there anything in particular you are wanting help with?

I might add that you might trey and focus on one particular subject so you have a focal point. This image is very busy, which makes it easy for the eye to get lost and confused on what to look at

First of all, welcome to DPS! I think you will really love it here. There are some amazing photographers here to learn from. And congrats on your first post as well! I love the gritty urban environment. Very raw. I think you could enhance that raw, gritty feel if you could boost the saturation to draw out some more color. Also, the sky is blown out and would look better if it wasn't. The plants in the front are kind of an eye sore, but that's just my personal preference. Thanks for posting and keep posting more!

windrider86, thank you so much for pointing that..mainly I still new in photograph, so really still have to learn a lot about the basic things like composition, color, lighting and so on. so if there are anythings that awkward from this image, I really open to learn about it ..thank you for mentioning about the focal point, I have to agree with that..now I just realize after you mention about it.

leviathan, wow..thank you so much for the warm welcome!! I have to agree with you for the saturation and the plants, especially about the sky..hmm..yes they are too blown out. I will definitely post some more in the near future, really excited for the learning opportunities in this forum.Thanks again for your kind comment
