Hi,
Can anyone give me their opinion about this pic? I found it while looking through old pics of mine. The "grainyness" kinda works for me. Is there any lighting tips I could get to improve it? Or maybe settings?
Thank you

Hi :)

I like the photo, it's nice and dramatic. The white figure against that really dark cloud stands out and looks very effective. If I were you I would crop out some of the black at the bottom. I like the way it isn't tack sharp and has some grain. I think in this particular photo it adds a good mood and atmosphere.

i too like the shot. there seems to be a lot of noise tho. May want to use a bit of neat image to smooth things out.

Thank you, guys, for the quick replies. I will try neat image and the cropping and see how they work. :)

Wow, that's a unique photograph of what I'm assuming is Cristo Redentor in Rio de Janeiro...

Beautiful! Along with the Panama Canal, this is one must-see location for my wife and I to visit!
