I like everything except the person at the bottom taking a shot, i find her distracting me from the beauty of the overall photo.

voted on low side,

First thing that comes to mind is detail... I can't see any detail in the roof which i'm sure is stunning to see in person. A greater dof woudl have helped maybe but in the current shot it looks u are trying to capture too much in one picture. When you are looking up at the ceiling at something like this... your eyes (at least in my experience) flow down the arch looking at small chunks at a time.

The 2nd part is cropping. A tighter cropping at the bottom to hide the half heads that are visible and possible waiting until the person taking the photo in front was done :)

What a fantastic ceiling! Love the colour of it. I would have cropped out the person in front and tried to make it more symmetrical.

Love the DOF here. Pity about the woman with the camera in the foreground. Still, you did a great job of drawing the eye to the subject.

Great perspective on the ceiling and lovely colours. I would like to have seen more of the ground to give the impression of hieght but still a good shot.

Focus appears to be off where it is needed to me.

Love the colour of the arch. Could possibly have done with being cropped slightly from the bottom to lose the disembodied head and the person reaching up with their camera. Looks like an incredible building
