Now this is more like it!! I love the ghostly figures you've captured here. It really gives this shot more feeling and tells a wonderful mystery about this amazing piece of world history. I'm also drawn into this shot by the open door to the left, it beckons the viewer to step into the shot. Wonderful capture here!

Well as a long exposure / night shot you've exposed it well IMHO. As far as the framing / composition of the subject I'm not really liking it. This is a beautiful building, I'd love to see other angles of it.

Nice shot, I dig the composition but think you can do better better workin post processing, the distinct halo around the trees and fence poles is something I would have skipped had I been in your shoes. 6 from me.

i see this as a study in shapes. I love the fence - leads my eye down to the trees which lead me up into the clouds.

Doesn't seem quite in focus. Dramatic sky.

A few problems here, although the view is nice. The greens seem way too saturated. The horizon is tilted, but not enough to show you meant to do that. And the horizon's pretty close to the middle, which makes it less interesting. Finally, my eye yearns for more contrast. I bet you could get those clouds looking pretty dramatic.

this looks a bit like hdr gone wrong: too much colour, some haloing, giving an unrealistic image. Horizon looks a bit wonky.

Colours don't work. Good picture compositionally.

Lovely presentation with that oil color like look that enhances certain colors to bring out the charm! Bump.
