I had a hunch you would come visit me , he he ! I respect your opinion as it is as valid and valuable as any other ! Although it is a matter of personal taste as far as the sky 's colors , or perhaps it is the light in general that you find too bright , anyhow all i did in PP was adding some yellow and red in photofiltre ( color balance )+2 and +1 respectively to it as i thought the sky tones looked a bit tarnished and faint , I do not have Photoshop to change the sky or paint it ( i play with curves only ) , the exif says the photo was taken a little before 8 pm thus there was still plenty of light available even in the hills where the church is located , Scandinavia still has reasonably long hours of daylight in August even if the sun is down some good light still remains for quite a while .
Placement and tilt are other topics , my eyes are old so it may be crooked , the belfry seems aligned with the frame and the placement of the church is questionable as to perhaps the said belfry is too centered , you may be right here , Ludo i want to thank you for taking the time to write a critique , i am defending what i think is a good cause , you have the right to give your say and feel free to agree or disagree with my reply ,i will never assume that my photos are perfect this one included ! Do visit my gallery anytime you wish , it is always open ,
Mu kind Regards,
