thanks! the light is what I like best about this. we were lucky to have driven by this church when we did. It was right at the end of sunset and a few minutes later would have been too late.

the colors textures and composition are great. The shadow under the roof bothers me, but not enough to delete it

I love that sky! It's only the lower 3rd of the image looks a bit grey and dark. Maybe some more editing would have fixed it?

Monsieur 'Mark',

I find that wee bit on the left distracting. Cropping that out and a tad on the left might give better balance as the picture is right heavy somewhat.

Lovely colours and texture on the wall.

Very dark, n'est pas? Making it lighter will also bring out the details and colours of the stained windows and the bell house at the top, which together make a triumvirate of focus points.

Good balance of the dark sky at the top with the dark bottom of the image.

And the final reason why im voting to delete is that you are an imposter - Mr Mark is always a face on a box. Where you hiding him, you venetian blind cleaning lizard??

I like the lines,the composition and the wall textures.
I think there is a strong blue hue that should have been limited to the sky.

Beautiful colors and textures to be sure, but there is something about the composition of this isn't quite right. I think it might be a little tight for me.

some of the best comments I've seen in a while gang, thanks!
Carlmonus (you funny fella), I might crop out the tiiiny slice of black in that spot you mentioned, but the cack must stay. Really, I want to see where the crack is coming from too. Hm, I'll think about it...

Don't crop! That side is fine the way it is.

Wish you hadn't cut through the curve bottom right
and the plaster was a bit warmer.

Beautiful subject.

Great contrast between the building and the sky. But the crop isn't working for me.

soooo close. the little itty bitty bit of corner on the left is awkward--doesn't really add anything to the over composition (which is excellent by the way)

Gah, I missed the voting on this one ... You would have gotten one more save from me. You don't need to crop out that little bit of roof on the left -- everything doesn't have to be so neat all the time. And I like the strange colors and how dark it is -- that is what makes it so moody and unique.

Sorry, dude -- seems like it was a tough weekend for saves. I thought the weekend crowd was supposed to be easy?

edit: delete that note on the left ... unless you want that to be the first thing everybody notices about this photo.
