There's an excess of empty space on the right hand side, while you cut off the left side of the statues...It looks like you didn't know how to aim your camera...
Beautiful color and clarity, but the cut off side really lessens the impact.
Thanks for your comment. Yes, you are right. The negative space on the right draws the eye to the left, where the figures are not entirely in the frame, implying movement. That was the intent, anyway.
I like the cropping, adds intrigue to the image.
I actually like the "dead space" on the left, but then again, I've never been one for symmetry
