Notre Dame de Paris

Hi Matthew. I think the composition is OK. The center of interest is offset from center enough to keep it from looking too static. It's no big deal but the way the tree on the far right is cropped might be slightly awkard but that would really be nitpicking.

What interested me, however, was the shadow areas on each side of center. There is enough detail on my Macintosh monitor but the shadow loses all detail and appears much too dark if I switch to a gamma that is supposed to emulate a typical PC. I wondered how it looked to someone actually using a PC and which you use.

Hi, Matthew,

For me, this would do better in a vertical format than a horizontal one. You've got the spire and the towers and the nave, all going vertical, and the Seine going horizontal and counteracting that. Personal opinion only, of course.
