Long standing stelae Axum

[Yisehaq]

Hey all,
This, almost 2000 years stelae has been shot several times by many. For me, whenever I get the chance to shot it, I try to get a different version of it. What do you think? Which versions do you prefer?
cheers,

oh that is a cool, um, 'thing'. I prefer the colour version.
I might consider a different crop to take out a lot of the sun, leaving the flare so that it doesn't dominate.

I'm with bambi unfortunately - I don't find the sun works here.
The colour version has more detail in the structure so that's the one I prefer.

I might try this when then sun is behind the structure.

Thanks Bambi & Marko! Will try to work a bit on it and see if it imporves ;(.

I also think the flare is too much ... from a different angle, with the sun just peeking out from behind the stelae might have worked better.
