Japanese Temple - C+C Please

[Neil S.]

I shot this at a Japanese temple a little over a week ago.

I like the shot, I just think the background is a little busy. I am not that good at PS or I would try to fix it.

Nice!.. what do you think of this crop?

 

[Neil S.]

Ya I was thinking it may be better cropped tighter.

If it had a more attractive background I think this could be a really good shot.

I think this is a very interesting subject that tells a story or two with or without the title. I agree with you about the busy/uninteresting background, though; would it be possible to do a re-shoot from a different angle that wouldn't include this background?

Maybe someday.

I do realize that trying to rework the shot could be beneficial, thanks for that. :thumbup:

This place is like 3 hours drive one way for us though. We don't go up there very often.
