Temple Church

[Didache]

Hi all .. today I went off to photograph the Temple Church in London (famous to everyone who had read/seen The DaVinci Code - it's the church with the effigies of the Templar knights on the floor). Unfortunately the church was closed for a couple of days for renovation, but I prowled around a little and got this image just off the square in which the church sits.

As always, any comments are appreciated.

Cheers
Mike

I like the subject but feel it is cropped a bit to tight. I might also clone out the two black spots on the column. I like the addition of the gentleman in the center. Overall well done. It has great balance and exposure. I would love to see a night shot of this if you have the chance.

Hi Greg - thanks for commenting. The crop bothered me too - brickwork started just above the lettering which is why I cropped it so tight. However, I have cloned a little more paintwork above and also cloned out the dark spots on the pillar. (I had already cloned out someone lurking in the shadows on the left). I think it's better.

Thanks
Mike

I agree, this one is a winner. Nice picture.

I think I would prefer if the human interest was somewhere else in the frame, but not dead centre. Otherwise it's a nice shot.
