Candlelight Critique

Please let me know how you all feel about my lighting and composition. I love this picture! We had a posada which is like a christmas caroling around the neighborhood, but in the portrayal of the Nativity Story.

2 things
the light int he background takes away from the main subject
I'd like to see more of the words to get a feel for what this photo is saying in its story!
Like the lighting and the whole ambiance of the image!

I agree about the light in the background - can you clone it out? Otherwise it's a very nice picture ...

[biancazee]

thank you. i went ahead and cloned out the other light. let me know what you think now.

[biancazee]

sorry...just saw the rule about only one image per post... i will repost a new thread.

[crockny]

I think it's OK to show the edited version here. Much better without the other light ...

[biancazee]

ok... i wasn't sure so i reposted a new thread. thank you... i like it as well. im glad i got the critique about cloning it out.
