This is the Lotus Temple in New Delhi, India. I made this from an image I took in 2004. Blended with DAP and changed the sky opacity. Hope you like it.
Denise, I went for the original crop because of the color gradient of the evening sky providing a different perspective... I do like the repost as it keeps the focus on the temple... let's see how others feel about it. Thanks for the feedback.
Hi Indranil, My call is for the cropped version. I don't feel the gradient is strong enough to make a difference. The crop narrows in the view to your center of interest and makes it stronger. The lighting is great with good use of the filters. Not sure if I care for the 2 leading lines though...One being dominant and the other lit.
One alternative is a vertical crop. It puts the subject in the power point and reduces the extraneous elements. It would also be nice if the road and lights would lead to the center of the subject, but what is there is there.
It also appears that the image could use a little corrective rotation. Using the center of the top of the dome and the center of the top of the front entry.
Hi Indranil, a super image. I like the repost but would crop a little off both sides. However Mar's repost is too tight for me. Fantastic temple and lighting.
