Comment from El-mundo
A fantastic, minimal capture with great artistic flair to it of this huge landmark monument, the scale of which would be hard to judge if you didn't mention the viewing windows at the top, in fact this could be made from Jenga bricks to me if you hadn't mentioned what it is! Great sharp clarity and long DOF, stark contrasting colours and good detail and patterning of the various colours tones of brown that make up the arch - your POV is what makes the piece, great shot well done :)

This must be an impressive construction, and I like the way you have photographed it. I really like the simplicity and the fine lines and shapes, and with the pale sky as a perfect background, the Arch is standing out from it in an excellent way.
Your photo is of course also pin sharp showing fine details and textures in the construction, and the exposure is good.
The format and the framing is spot on and the Arch is so well placed within this frame. Indeed an impressive and well taken photo, and with a very good DOF.

Pretty cool. I like it! Great detail in the arch. Really makes your eye travel up and over the St Louis Arch.
I like the angle in which you took the photo adding drama depth and dimension.
Good job.

Nice artistic curve but IMO there is too much "dead space"./ I think that a more detailed sky, perhaps with a sunset would make the arch stand out more.

It is always nice to see alternate approaches. This would be a fine exapmle for minimalist art. You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Whoa! What a photo. It almost makes my stomach turn. But I love it. To get that clean a photo of the arch is astounding. And to then place it on white give you a clear idea of exactly how unique it is. You can see the depth and length of the arch thanks as much to the white background as the reality of the arch.

What an interesting arch taken from a beautiful perspective. I love the detail and dimensional view from the left side. It must have been incredible to have been inside! What a view to get!
This photo reminds me of an architectural wonder.
Pleasure to view.

This is very interesting to view, it looks like a drawing , well focused, clear image, I like the angle and can't imagine being inside , I know this is very tall, I have friends who used to live in St .Louis, this shows the detail of the arch very well!
