Default ridding bikes in Brussels....

Hi all, the mother and her daughters were ridding bikes on the Cinquantenaire park with its triumphal arch and nearby museums, the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, Brussels Stock Exchange, the Palace of Justice and the buildings of EU institutions in the European Quarter.

Can you please critic composition & light?

Thanks

For a "People" picture the people are too small. Needs a tighter crop. Less background and foreground. The building might be interesting but it's too dark to really add interest to the shot. Just my opinion.

Thanks for your comments, I agree but if I crop it, not sure if blur will appear because of the crop

Being a relative newbie, take my comments with a grain of salt.

The focus seems to be off to me. I agree the crop needs to be re-thought. The subject is not really defined. The foreground is too much, the lifts are a bit distracting and the riders are heading to 'nowhere.' Just IMHO.
