Ciao Panos,
good centered composition here, with also a good light balance.
The grandagular distorsion add a charming effect to the roundness of the building.
There is just a little lack of sharpness, but you can correct it with a post-processing work with any software you like!
But... a note is necessary! Please update your post!

Hello Panos,

One of my favorite places in the world, the view of the undergraduate reading room, the Radcliffe Camera, from the spire of St. Mary's. I am amazed at the quality of the photograph, considering you produced it with a cell phone. I was a member of the Department of Theoretical Physics there, and had my most productive years there. The building to the right is All Soul's College, which has no students, but just scholars. Einstein was hanging out between jobs there in 1930 when he was offered a job at the newly founded, Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

Warm regards,

Bulent
