Eunice Lee - Final

Here it goes...

Color and light are great. The sky is a perfect match. It unifies the whole image.

but The composition bothers me. Why not a 2point perspective? You have the tower and then a balancing/re-enforcing light post on the left. But the tipping means you don't see the whole post so its effect is largely post. Then the picture dies off to the right. The tower has turned its back on the city. Just to make sure you don't get any ideas about entering the scene, we have a guard posted. I think the piece would have been far more effective without the foreground person. Just leave it open, let us stroll in. Maybe re-use the ligh posts in the back to stop the falloff of the space.

The lighting is good, but I wish the entrance wasn't in a shadow. The light angle is about as good as it could get, so it would require reconfiguring the architecture. Its just not inviting enough with a dark entry.

Very futuristic. Has the right palettes in designing an effect. The person in the foreground is distracting due to the simplification of the body.

I’ll say it again - 2 pt. Perspective. I like the design of the building, but the bench and the person and the giant expanse of concrete don’t do anything for me. The lighting and sky work well together. Maybe a vertical composition would’ve been more dramatic?

I like the perspective in this case a lot.
Sky works really well with the building and overal feeling is very convincing.
Simple design but very interesting.

Simple person in foreground is less distracting then the street lamp.

Positioning subject in the shade and object in the light is always a good place to start. It's a classic trope seen in many fine art paintings. Think Caneletto.
I think the visual could've benefited from having verticals vertical and the object composed right of center. The highlights and tonal values are very good.
