16 Dec 25 Comment Svetlana, your capture of the monastery is very beautiful. The gate makes a wonderful frame for it. It does need a perspective correction, and most editing software has a way to do so. Here's how to correct the perspective in Lightroom:

1. After the image has been imported into Lightroom, scroll way down to Transform (in the right column.

2. The top slider in the Transform section is Vertical. Move the slider to the right or left until everything that needs to be vertical is vertical. You will need to rotate the image a bit as you go along to correct it.

3. In some images, but not this one, you will need to move the horizontal slider also.

See the image below.

16 Dec 25 Comment Great job of selecting the leaf (an excellent choice) and blurring the background. The leaf with the water drop is beautiful. I would prefer to have the remnant of the gray vase on the left removed or darkened to blend in with the background. Dec 5th
16 Dec 25 Comment Terry, I agree with Tom - composition is terrific, and so is the background. The colors in the head are also terrific. I would sharpen the image in Topaz Sharpen AI. Then there wouldn't be any question about sharpness. Dec 5th
16 Dec 25 Comment I agree. It is an interesting juxtaposition - the old and the new - and a good composition. The cathedral is beautiful. I would reduce the whites a bit more and increase the shadows (the cathedral) also.

If you crop out the cars in the lower left, then you could balance that by cropping out some of the right side to maintain your thirds, and some of the bottom, which isn't needed. My submission shows what I would do. 		Dec 5th
