This composition needs a little work. The image quality is very good. The subject matter could have been better. This picture could be a little more creative.

From the Critique Club :

Hi Kano ,

You're right , it's a beautiful building. Now with the movie "The Da Vinci Code" it seens that some places are becoming fashionable , not sure if this is good or not ...

Title I'm not good choosing titles for my own photos and never vote lower because of a title but I think that you needn't to add "Historic".

Composition I suppose that you have try to choose the best place to take the photo , sometimes there are elements impossible to move or avoid. Personally , I think that it's a nice view.

Impact Again I have to suppose that you chose to take the photo at this hour of the day/night to avoid people.It's maybe a bit flat (except the bright light) , the sky is very dark and there is not enough contrast with the cathedral. Playing with the hue/saturation of the blue tones and with usm (aplying different values) would have helped the Cathedral to stand out.

Good luck in the future.

This just doesn't have the impact I would expect it to; I can't really put a finger on it, but maybe it's the contrast between the building and the background (too low), or the building itself (too dull?)
