I used 28mm lens and my position was very close to the wall.

78 Jul 25 Reply This one is a lot better. I will keep the Red barn in center, in my opinion, following the rule of thirds is generally a good guideline-but it really depends on the overall composition of the image. There's nothing wrong with placing the main subject in the center if it enhances the visual balance and impact.

In your photo, there's a beautiful flow from left to right-in the sky, the background hills, and the foreground wildflowers. In this particular case, placing the main subject-the red barn-right in the center works effectively. It anchors the scene and keeps the viewer's attention within the frame, rather than letting the eye drift away

78 Jul 25 Comment "Really well done on the processing! I love the angle-it gives a great sense of depth and really makes you feel the height of the trees. The black and white works perfectly here. Honestly, I don't think it needs anything more." Jul 16th
78 Jul 25 Comment Nice picture, liked it. Jul 16th
78 Jul 25 Comment "Great shot! The motion is perfectly frozen, colors are sharp, and the bike really pops against the blurred background-looks great.
Some group members suggested adding motion blur or smoke in editing, but honestly, I think that would make it look a bit artificial. Since the bike is already sharp and the background doesn't have motion blur, adding those effects might stand out in a not-so-good way-any trained eye would spot the editing.
As it is, the photo captures the moment really well. I think it looks great just the way you posted it!

78 Jul 25 Comment "This is beautifully captured and well processed. I haven't had the chance to photograph or even witness the Milky Way myself, so I may not be the best judge - but your photo looks fantastic. Really liked it, thanks for sharing!" Jul 16th
78 Jul 25 Comment This is a beautiful and well-composed travel photo. It's great that you chose not to remove the crowd of tourists - although they occupy only a small portion of the image, they add life and context, and help complete the scene. Jul 11th
78 Jul 25 Comment This is a beautiful photo with vibrant colors. The yellow flowers are striking and draw the viewer in.
However, the image feels bottom-heavy due to the overwhelming presence of yellow flowers. There's very little blue sky, and the red barn is positioned in a way that doesn't create a strong focal point or balance.
What you've done in post-processing looks great, so no critique there. But compositionally, here's what I would consider in a similar situation: take multiple shots with different framing and then select the most balanced one. In this scene, the sky adds minimal value because so little of it is visible.
Here are three possible compositions that might work better:
1. Place the barn in the center with an equal balance of sky and flowers and Square Crop.
2. Place the barn in the center with approximately two-thirds sky and one-third flowers.
3. Place the barn in the center with one-third sky and two-thirds flowers.
