Yes I think also about the top missing,but also a different angle to eliminate that bottom left hand corner of that building.

Wow the designs are wonderful. I feel that a tighter crop would enhance the OH WOW feeling a bit more.

I feel this would have been an ever more powerful image had you cropped down and just fill the frame with these gorgeous designs. You have the top making us visually confused with part of the roof off. Consider cropping down and see if you like it better. Work on your levels to pop those colours.

Looks like somewhere exotic wish you had said where. There is much busyness behind the main focal point and the bright white wall is quite harsh.

Nice catch but without the top it feels incomplete. Would have suggested you get more "under" the wheel.

What an interesting building. What has happened at the top of the shot - roof not fully in the image.

I like this shot. The path leads the eye into the image nicely as it takes you to the rocky crag. Where are you with these shots - where in the alps?

Adam773 says:

Lovely sense of space. Might the image be stronger if the crag to the right was cropped out leaving the focus on the more dramatic stack central in the photo?

Nice serene image. I like the stones in the foreground that add interest to the shot.

Yes, the focus goes directly to the sculptures and our eyes hunger to see them larger and in more detail. This is a thoughtfully composed upload and your technical elements are on target.

I like the freshness of this image and colour palette of red and green makes it visually exciting as red and green are opposite on the colour palette,. Sharp, clear and full of hope. A very pleasant entry to review.

I love to hear stories like that. I live in Thailand and our lifestyle will not permit a dog (although in my life we have had a few). We have many street dogs here and they are timid and shy and hungry and are fed by the Thais...it is a nice scene to witness a Thai woman offering food wrapped in a banana leaf to the dog.

This image makes my heart yearn for a dog. With that captivating smile he melts the viewer's heart (mine for sure). It is a nice stop action photograph rendered sharp. I would not have minded just a tad more pronouncement on the sky, just to add a bit more sparkle and visual excitement...however, I do recognize that this is artistic license and I bow to your prerogative. The composition is smack on the money because you have left room for your pet to run into, and the natural pathway of the (western) human eye is to read from left to right...so this is in tune with what we normally would read. My husband, just walked by the computer screen and had a look and he said "oh what a nice picture"....so there you have , two reviews for the price of one. Money can buy you a fine dog but to have a dog smile like this takes love. Oh and I also like you point of view. Grrrreat shot. woof

This was not an easy photograph to take exposure wise. Let me guess taken in the afternoon? (about 2:30). Those shadows and hot spots are present and the hot spots burn. However, the story of the image is interesting and does this not have to do with Vincent Van Gogh? I like the placement of the car to the side and the colour saturation is pure.
