The way you have edited this scene has mad those wonderful ancient columns really take prominance in your chosen viewpoint and the strong shadows from said columns add strength to the picture. The Lady sat contemplating is a perfect human foil to those ancient stones.:))

I like the luminosity of the columns against the deeply filtered sky. But the composition is completed by the woman in the foreground deep in thought.kind regards,
Andy
