Hastings sea front building

Nikon N90X Fuji Superia 200Asa

it's a building with potential but there are a few issues with this shot.

1. it's not level. Take it from face on
2. Great colour but it needs a blue sky
3. "The Deluxe" is far too close to the bottom of the frame
4. I'd try to make it symmetrical

I have to agree with the Dodmeister ...

Not much in the shot to hold my attention

Yep - half a dozen steps to camera left and 3-4 steps back, then get a tripod out and set the camera square to and face on with the building. A couple of steps back will allow you to keep some sky without running "The Deluxe" right at the bottom of the frame. Then Again, after checking google streetview, I can see why you decided to loose the horrible orange Bingo Hall entrances :shrug:

Thanks for that.

1.Yes the slight angle of the shot was my oversight.
2.Agreed it would be better with a deeper blue sky.
3.You would not wish to see what was under the "The Deluxe" believe me.
4.Me too.

Thanks for the time to comment, appreciated.

Yep Google earth tells a lot and unfortunately 3-4 steps back and I would have been on the beach, I am going back in the summer and I will re-shoot and see if I can get some improvement based on what both you and dod have commented on.

Many thanks,

Richard.
