thanks for looking and commenting, all of you....do we not take a photograph because the conditions are not perfect, of course not. I sat down for a rest from my wanderings and saw this. Now if I had been there earlier in the day, the shadows of the awnings would have been diminished or non-existant and I think they contribute significantly to the image, agreed not the shadow on the wall. I ended up burning in the shadows to enhance the effect rather than diminish and I'm happy with the resulting compromise. The place I shot this is about 1 1/2 hrs away and I will probably go back and have a look at earlier in the day.....I wonder if that awning will still be up lol.
