Love it. I love old buildings and the lighting that is often placed on the, I always appreciate straight undistorted shots.

The right side is distracting a bit, the darkness and the right side building don't fit as well. I would consider a vertical crop of this. Same for some of the bright modern stuff lower left.

If you have a bit more space at the top it would be nice.

Thanks Ben.

I have a more vertical shot of it which I'll put up but this one has more what I consider a sense of place, that it's 'growing' up out of the urban landscape. The more vertical one puts more emphasis on the building itself. This church is smack dab in the middle of downtown so obviously it's 'congested'. I wanted this one to work within that context.

The vertical one is almost straight OOC with less LR futzing around (sync'd the settings between the two).

They both work, the second one is the church, the first the church and setting.

Nice job on both, beautiful church went there when I was a teenager. Fun city.

as discussed, different messages with the different orientations and crops, but both are well done!
I prefer looking at the second and would consider taking a bit off the illuminated trees at the bottom.

Not much to really add, but nicely presented.

Thanks Ben, Scott & Rusty.

I agree w/ your feeling about needing the trees toned down a bit on the vertical/second shot. Truth be told, I manually popped a SB800 flash to the trees
during the exposure so I had something to work w/ down there but as-is, it's distracting.

and then w/ some funky perspective (I didn't really like the straight 'leaning back' look)
