Nice angle. The sky is interesting. As per my understanding I will crop a bit in the front and left of the image. Posted: 06/08/2022 20:28:18
Whenever I see a sky like this I want to convert to image to monochrome. I agree with Pinaki about the cropping. Posted: 06/13/2022 14:47:57
I like the crop and the black and white conversion. Thanks. Posted: 06/28/2022 16:59:17

Phyllis, very elaborated monument. The presence of people adds dimension to it. It is sharp. Agree with the B&W interpretation (I used one of the Silver Effex 3 presets), but I cropped it tighter in a panorama fashion that suits better the shape of the memorial Posted: 06/17/2022 09:12:14
I like your B&W and the cropping of the sky. Thanks! Posted: 06/28/2022 16:58:20
Nice capture. I like the crop and B&W suggestions. In the original the sky appears to dominate the actual memorial. Posted: 06/19/2022 19:35:32
A very nice depiction of the monument and the curved shape adds to the impact. As others hace suggested the sky is dominant rather than the monument so I would crop at least 1/3 of the sky. Posted: 06/23/2022 10:50:14
