Hi Tim! I see what you have done, but I think the previous one was very good to, this one has more contrast, what makes it more mistic!
Good work!

Both are lovely indeed. No preference between them from me.

I think you should experiment with rotating both images one degree to the right. Technically, these images may be level, but visually they aren't quite, and that's what counts, after all...

Hey Anastasia,
First of all, the picture has been taken on the side, no doubt it is perfectly horizontally leveled.
What I think is confusing, is that the camera wasn't in the center of the room in the first place (can't change that anymore, can I). I suspect this because the space between the arches (e.g. the white lines at the back of the first arch) is greater on the left than it is on the right.

Thanks
Tim

I've seen both, and I prefer this one without a doubt, it's the same composition but the colors are deeper, wich gives this version a richer and more complete aspect! What you've done with this has enhanced the beauty of this photo! btw, I gave this high marks in the voting booth! Have a great 2007!

I also like both, but I love the deepness of the reflecting colors in this one. Great work, Tim!

Hi Tim since you stopped by my gallery i thought i would pay you a visit. I think this post is better for the clarity and sharpness. Both are very nice though. Sandi

Great capture with the lighting available here. I would love to go to Andalusia and Seville to see some of these marvelous structures.

I like this one, the contrast is much better!
Most of all my pictures I correct in PSP with more contrast!
See you!

Tim, my dear new Friend [like it or not LOL]
This image made me speechless which is rather unusual as I tend not to stop in talking ... LOL
I like this one more than the previous one too.
Perhaps I will acquire PSP one day ...

I find this image has more energy, because there is more contrast, deeper colours and more balance. I think I prefer this image. Well done. T
