Archway

I'm not quite sure if I like this photo or not. I think I would like it better if the background was not so light but maybe then the archway wouldn't stand out. Not sure...any critiques are always appreciated. This is a slightly older photo from Duke University.

[Jane Anderson]

The archways seem to go on into infinity,and the lightness gives an ephemeral quality.

[Candace]

Great shot, like the way you've caught the brick detail & the way the light shines through the two archways across the courtyard, Fav from me.

Beautiful shot. I'd be tempted to try black and white on it.

[Susan C Clow]

Beautiful colors and lines in the archway and nice view looking through it. FAV

@lindasees @fntngrma @777margo @miley89 Thank you for your comments and opinions. It really helps me to try new ideas! Miley, I will post this in B&W in my other album!

[Harbie]

@chard Thanks Richard!! I really appreciate your opinion and how I could make it better! I tried to add more contrast but it didn't make much difference. I wish I could go back and take the photo again and compare the two!

This is great! I see details that I missed in the b&w version. In this photo, I can see the colors in the archway and also the green archways in the background.
