I like the converging lines and perspective, it all looks a bit clinical to me, maybe it need a human in the picture somewhere?

hi Mike.
you know, that is always by biggest dilemma, whether include, or not, people in the pictures.

This is a very complex and captivating composition Carlos. I applaud you! As a working photographer and part time photographic teacher I'm always telling my students to be clear about the message in their images. From looking at this one you were clearly drawn to the lateral and perpendicular lines that dominate your composition and that's what you chose to share with us. It's all too easy to forget that photography is all about the moment. Your decision to omit people from this shot, I believe, was the right one.

Thanks for your comment.
I fully agree with you, and sometimes we must wait for that moment to happen. I waited almost 10 m for the people, walking by, to get "out of the picture".
