Highlights are a little too bright in this one. Still a very cool image though.

This picture is lovely, I feel there may be an issue with the contrast used, or the slight flaring on the left side where the sun hits the coloums.

This draws my eyes down to the end of the arched hall. Well done.

I think I'd have waited for a slightly different time of day.. The harsh lighting where the man is sitting off-balances the photo and does more against it than for it, IMO. It's a nice study on lines and symmetry, but a softer more flattering light, (later in the day, sunset light, softer evening light.. something), would have worked much better.

Good job with what looks like a difficult exposure. I think you did really well. I like how the person is sitting in the middle of the light, with the passage leading to darkenss.

Tilted, not fond of the lighting

I like the concept here, but it seems a little blurry at the top and blown out in the bottom right quadrant.

Nice lines and effect.

you've done just enough to make a standard archway shot more interesting.

lovely seting...but too many hot spots in this shot

love the shadows and lines. IMO, if the people are meant to be focal points they need to be sharper, if they are not I find them distracting.

Getting a bit over grungey high-key images, but this one deserves a 8 anyhow, nice take.
