Yosef.
Be careful of high contrast (bright light and dark areas in the same image)
I did some adjustments to brightness. ( Hope you don't mind)
I like this photo.

I didn't have much hope for this post because of some of the other photos you've posted.

I'm pleasantly surprised.

THERE YA GO! This is much better, Yo. And the edit by Twisted Pixels is way too contrasty. I think you had a good shot to begin with. And the composition is good too. Keep it up, man!

Picture has a mood and lot of original characters.
You did well with perspective lines by not tilting the camera up or down, a bonus point for you. Unfortunately the difficult exposure range has burned out areas that are distracting. One of those good opportunities for HDR.
Well a try from me to bring out more of washed out over exposed areas.

Well done Yosef. The original is the better I think. I read another comment on one of your photo's mentioning getting away from eye level shooting. I think this one would work very well if you were laying down at ground level. Keep going dude.

Samsen, I think you may need to calibrate your monitor. What you post as an improvement, so far appears to be very over saturated and contrasty. I wish I could see what you're seeing, or better yet, you could see what we're all seeing. Notice that H.B. is not thrilled with the change either. That tells me more than myself is seeing a problem...

I'd agree, that version seems somewhat over saturated/over processed to my eye (on a couple of different monitors).

I like this photo, perhaps a little tighter crop would be better. What camera are you using?
