I really like the framing in your featured photo, it’s dynamic enough to hold my attention for longer than a normal photo. I also liked how the exposure settings soften the branches on the spruce trees allowing the birch to stand out in front of them. I think the timing of this photo is great because it would not have the same mood to it if it was taken on a clear day, the clouds really add an extra effect that helps it go a long way. The cannons are really nice too. The spot you were in when taking them was a good choice, I like how they seem to almost surround you when looking at it.
I am not exactly sure which building you took a picture of, but you did an excellent job using your rule of thirds to prioritize it. The angle that you took the picture in, on top of the bright coloring of both the building and the sky, creates a very deep field of depth
Content–good variety to begin: light bursts, outdoor b/w tones; indoor abstract buildings; point of view -POV is especially appealing with architecture–long angles, reflections of sky, bisecting of planes
Composition–POV strong and unique, beautiful winterscape featured image; interesting lay on b/w with some bright colors suddenly appearing
Technique–unusual angles, arresting abstractions, might work on exposure and clarity in putdoor scenes
Aesthetics–developing via POV and framing of objects
