I struggled with this one..not sure I'm happy with it. Maybe its the flag pole?

Overall I like the shot and the composition is great...what I thing ruins the shot is the distortion...I´m sure it will look much better if this was corrected in PS.
The pole well, its in the way...and the flag not moving doesn´t aid much either...cloning might be hard to "disappear the post" but maybe adding a flying flag?

Thats a great shot especially including the moon there I like it and yes the lens distortion isn’t helping there but what the heck its still a nice shot.
The distortion wouldn't bother me at all except for the fact that it's asymmetric (more on left/less on right). The flag pole would be tough to eliminate, but if you darkened it up to match the tonality of the building more closely it wouldn't jump out at you as much.
Thanks for the replies everyone. I am going to correct that distortion, its been driving me crazy.
