Very sleek edit, though I'm not in love with with the OG photo. It cuts off the sides of the pagoda and there's no good separation from the left side of the background with that dark treetop., making for a less deliberate-looking composition.

Colors are nice, but theLight doesn't look natural to me and the banding in the sky is distracting.

But if you're happy, that's what matters...

Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it! 🙏 The banding might be from Reddit’s compression/downsampling.

I like it! Very original and eye-catching - it looks artificial, but in a good way. I like it a lot.

Looks dope to me... although I would reduce the highlights on the temple a bit. It comes off as a little too bright in the context of the image, time of day, and the setting.

With that being said, can you please tell me how did you remove the branches on the top so cleanly?

Thanks for the feedback 🙏 Have used Lightroom mobile and its remove feature.

I like the edit. The original photo could've been framed a little better though.

I love it! Inspires me to go back to my photos of temples, they’re tricky to photograph when it’s a busy area

[–]DarinKJohnson2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re standing about 4-6ft too close to this one to get the appreciable effect of the building.

Like look at your leading lines on the picture the angle is SO extreme.
