    A Different Angle

    We love visiting this centre and the architecture that it has. I was much taken with this view!

    I think you have posted an image shot at this place before. Another nicely seen and taken shot.

    I don't love the black wall at the right, It is so high contrast that it draws far more attention than is should in this scene.

    I like it, it is different. Unlike Manfred, I am more bothered by the black wall on the left. The right wall is relatively dominant and therefore require attention whereas the left wall is surplus in my opinion.

    Re: A Different Angle

    I like this image a lot. It's a very interesting and appealing composition.

    Re the black edge: I'm of two minds. However, I do think that the difference in contrast between the right edge and the central core weakens the image. One thing that would address this, at least in part, would be to select the central region and increase midtone contrast only there, using a curve. Here's an example:

    One option for the black, if you decide its a bit too much, is simply to select that area and increase the black output level a tiny bit with a levels tool. I found that increasing it only to about 8 made a quite visible difference. Which you prefer, of course, is a matter of taste.
