    Nice location for this stone church in the woods.

    I like the POV and the straight lines that lead your eyes to the church.

    I might crop some more from the top, just me.

    I like this. I am going to disagree with the crop suggestion - I think cropping from the top will only sever that branch from its tree and not remove it and create a distraction in the process. I think that is equivalent to cutting off the top of someone's head or clipping an arm partially out of a portrait. If you can go back and reshoot, maybe approach just a little closer, right up next to the tree perhaps and that way eliminate it altogether.

    I disagree about the crop. Just the church and the path leading to it will not give this a better composition. I like the composition the way it is at the moment,no crop. The branch of the tree framing it from above and the trees on the side anchoring the shot is really very nice. If I am going to remove anything from here, it will be the shadow of the whatever it s on the pavement leading to the shot just to keep it clean...Just a thought.

    I too like the composition as is . Like Isabel, I find the thin shadow in the FG distracting. Nice image
