the top part man. I think if you crop in more on the shadows and the details it would be a more composed picture. This is where less is more. At leas the top portion should go.

Yup, a bit too much on the top, but wow! This is a striking picture. Like yesterdays, it doesn't look 'friendly' for kids in the deep shadows, a bit spooky!

These shadow pictures are interesting. If you cropped the dark roof off the top I am wondering if we would be wondering what caused the dark shadow at the bottom? It's kinda like looking through a window the way it is! Maybe take the less distinct big shadow off at the bottom or some of it. Anyway, it is very striking. We could play around forever taking bits off.

Stunning shot Michael. Dramatic, and I like the intricate shadow play sandwiched between the top and bottom frame. The top and bottom give it an excellent balance.

Nice one mate, the interplay with shadow and light is excellent. I don't mind the shadows of the building at the top half of the frame as they make good bookends with the lower half.
