Nice textures. Clean and spare. I might go with a touch more contrast to bring out the lines in the stone.

I also really like the shot, but agree it could use just a bit of touch up yet. Crop a little off the top and adjust the curves so the gravel at the bottom is markedly darker.

You profile doesn't say whether it's ok to edit, so I did a quick one to show what I mean. I think it creates three clearly separate areas of the photo due to the contrasting tone. It's not heavy, but little changes can make a big difference. For me, I find it a little more interesting.

I think the contrast boost is okay in that edit, but I'd dial back the sharpening. It looks too crunchy, at least on this screen.

Thanks for the input. Ill plug it back into LR and play with it some more.

Nice tonal range. I wouldn't mess with it much.

I like the way the stones above the door break up the symmetry.
