Default Cairo minaret - flare question

Hey DPS,

Quick question, I took this shot recently while wandering around some mosques in Cairo (more of which will be on here soon) and I am just looking for some feedback on the flare. I know it removes some of the detail, but I think it highlights the sun and temperatures you find you here. Also what do you think about the framing, using the tree branches.

Cheers,

P

I'm so sorry but this just work for me. There is no detail or colors in the building from the bright sun. the branches will work in some cases but I am afrid not for this one. Probably if there were more but having so few works as a distraction
