Does that make any sense for the theme? It has a bunch of light in it, but I don't see an "end" really, do you?

    Maybe if you crop it vertically...

    That is pretty interesting!
    It reminds me of that movie "Something Wicked this way comes". I agree, maybe cropping it vertically would make it look like your coming on up on it, instead of displaying the layout with a wide view.

    I agree with Tatiana. Crop a bit on the top as well.

    Maybe B&W for everything except the Roncalli pavilion? Kind of a Wizard of Oz effect.

    Maybe call it Pied Piper? or Midway?

    I think it would look better with a portrait crop as well with some emphasis on the middle... I find the cars and the yellow thing on the left side a little distracting.

    I like having some of the context of this shot, but agree that this would benefit from being cropped on both sides so that our attention is focusing on the road leading into the amusement park. It would strengthen the appearance that this light is at the end of...the road. The sky is adding a nice contrast to the colors of the pavilion but not distracting us from the light below. I think there is potential here. Perhaps crop it a few different ways and repost for input again? Good luck!
