    Seb, the lone bench is charming, and the colors of the window sill, bricks, bench slats, and the scattered lighting make a pleasing picture. But, I feel that there is not enough here for a strong image. still, your framing is well done.
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    Seb,

    I like how this image naturally leads me from the left to right. It has a great flow to it.

    But there is nothing interesting in the background. This image would be much stronger if there was something more in the background.

    Thank you for sharing.

    Seb,

    Try croping the background out so that its just the building and I think it improves the photo.

    Nice colours

    Thanks guys.

    Actually, I agree with you, the scene is somewhat empty and would quite certainly be more interesting with an additional subject but somehow, I still enjoy it for what it is.

    It's good to have your take on it!
