Nice subject but the tight cropping does not show the full spendor of the church. If you could retake this shot at dawn or dusk for a warmer light, I think it would make a much better picture. Also try the vertical framing with head on composition, it would include the bell tower and more of the sky.

Thien said it, the framing is too tight. There seem to be lots of elements that we are missing. Still, this façade is beautiful. It probably looks older than it actually is, and it is almost fortunate it is not kept in a clean state...

J'aime également les églises. Ce sont les témoins de notre passé. Très belle église présentée ici Zernan, il est dommage que l'entretien du bâtiment soit oublié.
Très bien, Zernan.
Vous avez un magnifique portfolio.
I also like the churches. They are the witnesses of our past. Very beautiful church presented here Zernan, it is a pity which the maintenance of the building is forgotten. Very well, Zernan. You have a splendid portfolio.

I have the same photo of this church see here ,In you photo you tried to do a tight crop to preserve the oldness of the church ( left side is already a modern building) but this somehow jeopardize the composition. i like the sharpness, the clear sky background and lighting, really hoping you could repost eliminating the tight cropping.....rdgs
