Please, let me know your opinion about this photo. Is the sun very offset?

I get a sense of tension between the people and the sun, and with the sun being so far off to the right from them it kinda pushes that tension even more. If the sun were more over to the left, i think it would work a lot more effectively.

I agree with Lighthunter - its a great image full of atmosphere and I think I like the space between the people and the sun.

Cheers

You stole my words! :D

I like the photo but it would be nicer if there was a bigger gap between the sun and the frame.

Thank you guys! I agree with you and I knew that the sun is too close to the border of the frame. I have a couple of pics from this position and shot with the same settings, so I can easily combine two of them to obtain the best position of the sun. But it's not photography then :?
Here's another one from the same serie. But I think the sun here is a little bit over-exposed. And I don't like the pose of the people. What do you think? (It's a crop from a larger frame.)

I agree with you - the first one is better.

Too true.

Another one. MANIPULATED - combination of two photos. It would be great if it was a pure photographic shot :cry: Don't like the blending noise too.
