Nice shot. I wonder how they keep the floor so clean? :^)

Thank you all for your comments. I did give it try to crop out the left side to the arch where no outside is visible. Keeping the same h/w ratios, it brought the door closer of course. To me, it makes the doorway less mysterious. It also made the benches on the left a bit more obvious. Thanks for the idea: it is always fun to try new things.

I love this image! Unique and an excellent composition. I would try Martin's suggestion, but I fear it would weaken the composition.

Very nice shot, David! I wonder how it'd look though if it were cropped at the left side so that there's nothing exposed outside of the archways? Doing so would give the image a more mysterious perspective imo. Either way it's a great photo!

Beautiful composition - I love the look of the receding curves on the right side, and the rippled reflections on the floor that almost look like water!
