Submit your best architectural images for a chance to win an Fstoppers original tutorial
The community has voted, the tutorial winners have been chosen, and Lee and Mike Kelley have sat down to give their feedback to 20 architectural images submitted by Fstoppers members. Here are the results.
Congratulations to Sherwin Magsino for submitting the highest rated image and Dos Imagery for being the randomly selected entrant to win a tutorial. We will be in touch through your Fstoppers profile to claim your prize. If you want to learn more about architectural photography from Mike Kelley, check out his tutorials in the Fstoppers store.
If you missed your chance to participate in this episode of Critique the Community, our next submission post is open now. Although we recently featured landscape photography, Lee and Patrick are now traveling with Elia Locardi for the next iteration of Photographing the World so we are offering the community another chance to submit their best landscape photos to be critiqued by Elia himself.
It's time to put forth your best architectural photos and see if you can impress one of the most well known architectural photographers in the world, Mike Kelley. For the next episode of Critique the Community, Lee and Mike will be giving feedback to 20 submitted images below. Submit yours and join the challenge.
Mike has taught me more about architectural photography and light painting than anyone else. The techniques he teaches in his tutorials not only help in taking beautiful architectural images, they have improved my photography within other genres as well. With his extensive knowledege, Mike is extremely well equipped to provide feedback to the community's images. Post your best architectural image below and you may not only be selected to receive a critique, you also might win one of two Fstoppers original photography tutorials that we are giving away. The first winner will be based on the highest community rated image. The second winner will be a randomly chosen entrant.

Guys, I love the critique honestly and I'm sure this takes a lot of time from your work, but for example, in this critique, I think it should've been mandatory to state the location and building so you could beforehand check some pictures of the building.
So we could go and check also and see what it looks like or what it is...
My picture isn't in Europe is in Panama Latin America and is a Frank Gehry Museum
Am I allowed to upload more than just one image? Greets!
Glad to learn more about this building which I did not know much about. I also fully admit that I think most other countries are a bit ahead of America when it comes to pushing boundaries with architecture - which seems extremely conservative with regard to its architecture. One need look no further than 1WTC for evidence of this - our flagship snoozefest! Thankfully we do have some players injecting some new life into architecture in America, which has been pretty stagnant since the economic crisis.
I would also like to do a more 'in depth' critique, where we pick images ahead of time with intent of looking at them from a purely architectural photography point of view. I only came in to the studio with the images pre-selected. Maybe for the next one we can pick the images ahead of time, as a critique of commissioned architectural photography - or something like that. In this case I'd love to know more about each project, the architect, the intent of the photographer, etc.

sadly I had a more close up image of the museum in the contest

if you read the description I state why I did a close up of that particular area, it has a neat effect.
I went to that specific museum and took that photo in particular, because it was explained to me by the lead civil engineer from the Gehry foundation, it is like a little easter egg from Gehry.
Also you said you wanted to see more from its surrounding and I totally agree (with the photo you critiqued), but i just managed to take only 1 picture with the drone as it was required to get a special permission by the museum and the office was closed by the time I decided to go.

I really like you guys taking your time to help us improve, I don't do this for a living I just love photography and want to improve myself
It would be helpful in future competitions to state in the rules how many submissions are allowed. The portrait comp was 3 and this one is 2, it would be good to know and help us decide what images to select. Thanks.
