I got this yday while going through one of the museums. its a really impressive statue especially as you view it from below. But i cant seem to do anything with it. any suggestions? i can supply a version that hasn't had any levels changed form the shot, direct from the camera. im sure there is a shot there somewhere, but buggered if i can find it.

I'm terrible with post processing but from a composition standpoint, I would prefer a crop closer towards the statues (just barely oustide the shaddow)

Go ahead and post the original why don't you? I'll have a crack at it.

This is pretty rough since I had to upsize a LOT after cropping, but it's a direction. The background texture is intentional, however.

ok here is another attempt, thanks to Bear_music for giving me some ideas. Even though its better it still doesn't feel right, maybe its one that will warrant another visit, see if there aren't any other angles i could shoot from. That or i have no vision :P



haha just by comparing thumbnails i can see there is more impact with Bear_music's composition. will work on it later, Got maths assignments that need done.
