Ahhh.... okay. Thanks for the explanation.

When I first saw the shot with the title referring to the temple. I assumed the temple was the main subject. I couldn't understand why the tables/chairs were included in the composition. Hence my comment.

Nice view from your office though - I'm jealous!

This was a 9 for me and expected it to place higher. It was unique to all the sunsets and landscapes.

Just one quick comment: I've taken a million pictures of the temple, from all different angles. This one was purposely composed with the tables and chairs in the image to give it more of a "warm and inviting" feeling. Many many people spend their lunch time out at these tables in this beautiful surrounding. My office is in the building that is just to the right of these chairs and that is why I call this my corner of the world. :-)

I really like the tables and curved railing in the composition. This is unique to the temple shots I've seen before. It does feel heavier on the left than right in terms of visual weight. The tlones throughout the photo arewonderful. Well done. 9

Great photo, one of my top two. Very good composition, the tables in the foreground work very well, add interest to the photo and yet dark enough to not take away from the church. Great exposure, you got it perfect in a difficult to get right shot. Bright skies and dark foreground have been the death of me. Very jealous!

I'd say this technically a perfect shot.

The frame is a little bit obtrusive. Well done.

A very good and dynamic composition. The sunlit towers ar a tad too bright.

Very nice perspective and unexpected with the tables and chairs in shadow. I think the dim tones of the front area help to ground the entire shot. The contrast of the well lit white tabernacle really sends your eye right to it. Good composition and detail without being too busy. 8
