I like the way that shot is composed. Do you bracket the shot? I think underexposing by 1/2 stop would have brought out some more detail. Just my .02.

I like the photograph and the composition. I do not, however, like what appears to be an unattached object in the sky on the left; it distracts the eye and is easy to remove in any photo manipulation program. Also, you might try to correct the converging vertical lines. In Photoshop CS just go to edit, transform and perpective and pull the top "handles" to correct to your liking. On the other hand, you might like it as it is; it was only a suggestion.

I think I would have preferred the shot from about 30-50 meters backwards. That shot's good if you know the place already, if not... well... that's just my opinion.

thank you for your info and suggestion's..yes there is a building to the left, but the picture is untouched ..please bare with me iam still learning photoshop, and as for moving backwards, i could not move any more if i did i would be in the middle of street and in NYC that would not be a good idea..

thank you again for all your input.
