Hello 'Ring',
Like to give you my honest opinion. If you have made this image for your own, like to say that's it's a nice one. But now you have decided to upload it to Caedes in order to share it with Caedes members, like to say this as well: "If I would have had the opportunity to capture the Shapoori Bridge, I would have done it without any persons on the image. Can't help it, but your friends give your image the character of a snapshot now."
Think my Caedes friends don't have interest in mages of your friends, so may give you the advice to post a similar image without friends on the image, and you will see the difference. Please give it a try.
Wish you success and kind regards, Cornelius.
Hey...I have to agree, with C...this looks like a great photo for a personal scrapbook, but not really something for on here. The people need to be removed and see what it looks like then. Also in my humble opinion, there is a lot of 'sand' in the forefront of the photo that could be cropped out some.
Other than that, the textures and lighting are great.
