    Great shot! As Mike mentioned above, the starburst really make this image special. Beautiful composition and light too! thumb.gif
    Shoot in RAW because memory is cheap but memories are priceless.

    Well done Awaisclap.gif

    Just wondering if this would look better with less contrastheadscratch.gif The composition is so very strong and the contrast may not be needed.

    Hey thanks Marc do you mean just to reduce Contrast slider in PS a little bit ?

    I never knew Contrast and Composition have a relation.

    Thanks once again clap.gif

    Hi Awais.
    I really like this, strong graphical composition, but it leaves me wanting to see a little of what is hidden in the black.
    Great job.thumb.gif
