Matsumoto Castle, Nagano Prefecture

Matsumoto Castle, Nagano, Japan.

Learning from your critiques! Thank you and don't be shy!

The clouds appear totally blown out. Subject would be better non centred. Say if you panned to the right and had more of the grass on the right in frame and placed the building on the left. Also taking multiple exposures, so you could expose for both the clouds and the building.

Hi

What a fantastic place! I rememeber it so well....

great castle.

I agree however, with previous comment. The clouds disturb the overall impression.

It's a beautiful location. However, the main subject looks dull and grey. Different lighting, for example early morning or late afternoon, would have brought out some colour.
