Nicely framed and processed, the dark notch on the right is very pronounced but I would leave as is, my gaze is drawn to it but the colors are vibrant enough and the reflection interesting enough so that my attention moves freely.

Oh... even it was not there in my mind. Thanks for bring it in my notice. .

Tejal, the very bright areas bottom left and right are quite distracting to me, and that leads me to wonder of your choice of frame is too large - perhaps a square crop to remove most of those bright areas and then tone down the bit of them that remains?

Cheers.

Thanks Philips for your valuable feedback. I will correct it .

Yes, a pity that there is such a strong variation in light levels.

Cropping to concentrate on the main subject might work and a 4 x 5 ratio could be an alternative to going square.

Thanks a lot for your input. I think i will have to check the other shots too of the same place. . I may have something similar to your suggestion.

My thoughts also Tejal. Cropping to the edge of the beam above the door, burning down the remaining highlights on the LHS and lifting the shadows slightly would be worth considering. Concentrates more on the individual inside. Something like:



It 's a well seen image thought. Nice work.

I very much like the edit of John (2). It is now stronger...and yet still have the title correct, Tejal...Very nicely done, Tejal...

I very much like this image. The crop by John improves it IMO.
