Nice image Emily. I find the over all mood of the photo very pleasing owing mostly to the colors and hues of the image. I do find the composition a little lacking. I don't know what you would have encountered if it had been framed a little lower, but I think there are interesting elements that are being short changed. I would have like to see the photo cropped to the right to eliminate the windows of the second building to me they add nothing to the photo. The cross is marvelous, I love it. If it were moved higher in the photo and the third window on the left allowed to reveal itself more along with the great awning and may be the doorway I just feel you could have greatly improved the overall composition. You have a wonderful eye for spotting interesting subjects keep it up.
Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

Thank you for the thoughts and critique, OT...I really appreciate it! You're absolutely right re: the compositition. Next time I'm in Baltimore, I'm going to go back and get some better shots...try some different angles...of this.
