•  Oppose Nicest of the series, but some technical flaws. Image is sharp on top, fuzzy on the bottom, can be seen at the door frame and first steps. DOF too much in the outside as well as too much light. In photoshop go to image > adjustments > shadow/highlights and play with the amount values. Maybe 5 for shadows and 20 for highlights. Don´t mess with other values too much. This adjustment gives the appearance of a larger dynamic range. Over use can lead to posterization like effect, however. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 01:06, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

•  Neutral a very nice composition. It only bothers me that it looks cut-off on the top. It would have been better to have the whole surrounding frame on the picture. --AngMoKio (talk) 11:34, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
