Excellent quality, interesting subject and pleasant light. I like especially the contrast between the warm sandstone tones of the buildings and the red buses as well as the change between light and shadow. --

Living in Oxford I can say that this is the wrong time of day to take this photo. Far too much shadow.

Agree with Charles. Also the verticals are slightly leaning outwards. --

per Charles. In addition to deferring to his local knowledge, it also seems to me like the shadow was perhaps overenthusiastically suppressed.

. I've only just seen this now so it's a bit late, but for what it's worth, I'm not sure how you would get a shot with much less in shadow. The angle and curve of the street makes it difficult and
I found nothing on Google Image
search that was any better - all the sunlit photos have the same shadow on the left side and sunlight on the right. The best you are likely to get in terms of balanced lighting is an overcast day but then it won't look very pretty.
