This kind of image has been done a lot, but this is a very good example IMHO. And good detail in both light and shadows.

I agree but this is always a pleasure to look at well executed images like this one.

Thanks, both! You're kind.

Now I just have to improve my printing skills so I don't block up the shadow on the right. I've not managed it with Bamboo, that's for sure. I'll try GFS. Oh, it all makes work for the working man to do, as Flanders and Swann sang.

PS: in case anyone's interested, it's the Bridge of Sighs in St John's College, Cambridge, taken from the New Court cloisters last weekend.

I like the composition. However, I feel that the image is a bit too bright, I would expect a bit more interplay between the lighter and darker areas of the image.
