Shinto Gate to Nothing

I think there is too much nothing. For me it would have worked better if you put the gate closer to the middle of the picture. (Rule of 3rds - it's nearly heresy to mention it.)

 

This kind of shot could work well if you got behind the gate, looking through it into the mist.

I think it is very nice (ethereal) image that IMO can be improved by cropping out the trees. The simplicity of the red gate and the misty hills in the background make this image special.
