  1. Tina, Holger, and Keith, Thank you all for your very kind comments.

    Holger, I am thinking of making a short video and upload it to YouTube to show the PP method I use. Its pretty simple infact, but setting the right  white balance was very tricky, took me two weeks to discover the right CWB, and I discovered it by chance!  I will send you an email with the link once I upload the video, hopefully within two weeks so so. Regards 

  2. I agree with Stanley, the foreground is heavy, and the two flanking columns are heavy too. The solution is simple: re-crop and recompose. Some sharpness and tonal contrast is needed too. Kind Regards 

  3. The lighting in this photo is good, and sharpens is good too. I hope you would not mind me pointing out few things here, mainly my points are composition related.

    I think that horizon being in the middle of the photo is not as effective as going by the rule of thirds.

    The size of the building and the space it occupies in relation to the image is not optimum, the building looks too heavy in relation to its surroundings. To go around this problem its a common practice to photograph such "heavy" buildings looking at one of its corners and showing two sides instead of one side only, this might help in making the building mass looks lighter.

    Cropping the upper antenna and the lower potion of the podium is distracting too. Buildings needs to have good space around them to be appreciated. You can have tight cropping but then it has to be meaningful. 

    The lack of a supportive object in this photo that counter balance this heavy building is distracting too.

    The building itself does not make for a good photographic subject, you have many beautiful architectural/historical buildings in Iran that is worth photographing, this one IMHO is not one of them.

    For all the above reason I rate the above photo with 5/7. 

    General note: Composition is very important in architectural photography, I think you can work on that. 

    Wish you all the best and good luck ;)
