"You could only make good photographs on your way to work." -anonymous-

Kidding :-), It's just I happened to make this image (as some others I have done) on my way to work inside the Cologne cathedral, one of the finest pieces of architecture from the middle ages in Europe.

The two individuals in the photograph were lost in a conversation for some time, so I could take my time to frame them.

Hope you'll like it.

cloning and curves

I was curious to see what the image would look like if the (nice) blue window was less dominant. I cropped it by removing two vertical panes on the right. In my opinion, this keeps the attention on the two men. You could try removing only one vertical pane.

I also selected the jacket of the man on the left and using curves, I lightened it just a touch (as not to increase noise too much).
