    Awesome shot but you wanted some critiquing so I would have to say I would have liked to see the frame moved to the left just a little bit to balance the pillars, or more-so their bases.

    Does that make sense?

    Yep, that defs does! I guess thats something i need to work on, being a little more on top of things when it comes to framing.

    It's one BEAUTIFUL shot! I LOVE the arc shaped dome with repeated motifs and the lighting in the picture. Are those natural light?

    Thanks mate, No its not natural light, there was a spotlight thing behind me which lit up the dome areas. It was actually rather dim.

    I think it works well. In the absence of a tilt shift lens for the pilars I think the dome composition makes it very nice.
    Good work.
