You seem to have 2 subject here, the penacle and the eternal flame. The flame being in front appears to be your choice of subjects. But the people take your eyes to the penacle. I find myself going from one to the other, back and forth. I get the sense of a struggle for top dog in the photo. Maybe someone else feels this way too and can explain it better. Don't get me wrong it's a good photo otherwise. Maybe taken from another angle, one which eliminates the people. Just my thoughts PTL5 |

The tour group in the back is a nice touch. DPz |

It's okay... but the shot just doesn't do too much for me here. Seems to be too balanced and two dimensional. |

Shame the railing blocks off parts of the quotation. |

could you maybe have crept up to the fencing and taken the picture without its bars blocking the words? so that the rectangle started with the L in LET and ended with the G in OFFERING, you know? heck i bet you paced it out and lined it up just so, should trust your judgement, could no more have uprooted the bars than you could've moved the clouds away for a sunnier landscape. then again overcast might be where it's at for this contemplative picture. seven. |

One step to the left would have made this a whole point better for me. I think a polarizer would have helped to. While I'm sure the kids were out of your control, catching them in a more reverent moment would have improved the mood. 6 nards656

Composition ~ It may be an illusion, but the horizon seems slanted to the right a bit. Also the railing is distracting (both the front rail blocking the words and the back rail cutting the people). I know this will sound off the wall, but if you could have raised your camera 1 meter (about 3 feet) higher in the air and aimed down, this would have gone from a very nice snapshot to a powerful image (in my opinion). Possibly as little as holding your camera an arms length above your head and shotting. It takes a bit of practice to frame the shot that way, but it can really be worth it. I love the school children 'touring' in the background... You caught them at a perfect moment... ~ Exposure ~ I like the light overcast days produce and this shot took full advantage of it. Well done... ~ Focus ~ Well done... ~ Challenge ~ I have no problem imagining this in a publication... Well done! ~ Myqyl ~ |

The tour going on in the background spoils it. |

Got to get rid of that railing. To distracting. Plus need to get down on the ground and try this shot to really get a great eye catcher. |

I suppose you didnt have a telephoto lens. It would have brought the sphere closer to the flame. Nice and crip photo though! |

Needs emotion from a person interacting with the scene |

Excellent journalistic type shot! Though it's not the most fabulous photograph, for photojournalism it works very well. I'm giving it a 8! Good job. |
