    National Gallery @ Trafalgar Square

    The National Gallery is the building on the left. The building on the right is the St. Martin-in-the-Fields Church with its Café in the Crypt. We ate there and it is a crypt.

    Interesting shot Manacsa. I love the building photography you posted, it's great to see a part of the world some of us haven't been lucky enough to experience. For this shot, I'm not sure everything works out how I'd want it to. The bottom portion of the shot is a harsh contrast for me and I'd personally think of cropping it out. However, I think if you crop it out, you'll lose the balance of this shot. The red bus sticks out like a sore thumb too IMO, I don't think it's possible to crop it out without losing a substantial portion of the picture.

    Interesting shot, not my favourite, but it definitely has potential.

    Overall I like it and I think you have done really well to capture to the two buildings in the shot. What I don't like is the silouhette of the statue and the figure on the right that block the bus somewhat. Personally I really like that you have included a contrasting icon of London in the image, the double decker bus, just wish we could see it properly because it works.

    Thanks for sharing
