I like how the image looks overexposed - not something you see much of in pixel art.  May I see the reference please? (be sure to always post your references in the future)

I know you can't see the detail on the Corinthian columns on the reference very well, but I'd add as much as I could to the picture (like the plants and whatnot on the tops). That'd be an awesome addition. But wow... it's awesome so far. Nice colors!

what's with the funny crop? in my opinion it doesn't really help the composition. you get a better sense of the perspective with the entire thing/./

I agree. However, I realized upon finishing the piece that the weekly challenge rules call for a canvas no bigger than 200x200. :/

To me the angle of the portch is completely out in conparison to the dome at the back of the building.

Looks about right now, the perspective. I rather liked the warped perspective tho, had a more dynamic look. You almost had a fisheye thingie going on there, well partly anyway.
If you'd change the other parts it would add quite a lot of character to the image i'd say. Anyway, good job sofar I like the overexposed coloring too.
