After downloading, this is an interesting shot with some sense of another element such as mystery. Makes me want to know more about what is going on.

It may have something to do with the odd front on the restaurant. It just doesn't look "right" for a restaurant.

Too big for me, better zoomed in, but great shot!

I think it's a bar, not a restaurant.

Thanks, bobbennett. It is a bit wide.

It's possible. I wasn't paying too much attention, and went by its name. And there were a lot of bars in the area.

Hi Voss! Just saw your downloaded photo. Great shot! I offer the following suggestion, for your consideration: try cropping-off the area behind the girl's heel as it is wasted space and doesn't add anything to the image. With this done, you now show the young couple just entering the image. Next, crop the image top to the top of the door transom and bring it to the right as far as you like. I hope you don't my suggestion, as I belive you will end up with a stronger composition. Let me know what you think. Regards, Stan

I agree on the crop behind the girl. I don't agree on the top crop, because the center, wide, black shadow needs an origin, in my opinion.

This is why photography is so great! Everyone sees differently and the beauty of it is that everyone is correct from their vantage point! I'm glad that you found some merit in my suggestion. Keep on clicking!

Hey, dadaist, nope, don't mind suggestions at all. I welcome them because everyone has new ideas. Here's what I think you were saying. I tightened up the bottom to keep proportions. There's nothing wrong with it. As you said in your later post, everyone has different ideas, and different ideas of what is appealing. It's hard to say that one is better than another. And thanks for taking the time to look closely at it.

Hi, travelwp. I tried cropping the way you suggested. Had to take some off the right side for balance. It'll work. I agree with you and Dadaist-- that which is considered to be ideal is an individual thing. I do thank you for taking the time to look closely at the photo.
