Comment by pamelasue: IMHO, the shadows on the wall are the main subject that my eye is drawn to ... and to me, that isn't low key ... I wish you'd gotten more of the blossoms in the composition ...
Comment by manish: Very nice, just wish you could have captured a bit more of the tree intead of just the top 1/3rd. The hues are so rich at the bottom
Comment by noraneko: Although I think the composition could be stronger, you did a great job with exposure control and lighting. The stars are great! 7.
Comment by SandyP: How BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I hope you aren't taking hits for there being so much of the sky and so little of the trees -- because the challenge just said to use trees in your composition, and this is a spectacular photo with trees in it! What incredible lighting and focus for night! 10
This is precisely the cliche that you have transcended with this photo. Your processing and putting the camera on the ground with the man have gone a long way towards that.
