The problem is too much relatively bland space in the lower right. A tighter crop cutting out 20% of the right and 15% of the bottom would result in a much more dynamic image instead of bright blank space that sucks energy. -tv

Thanks TV. No HDR here. Just a very early morning shot while waiting for the sun to rise.

How do think I could improve the compositional balance.

Andy, the two others are masterful. This doesn't come up to their standard. Also HDR? The composition seems a unbalanced. -tv

Thanks Lydia. I had not considered the third person being that he/she was on the fringe. Will try your suggestion.

I like it that you have two leading lines to the subject. Nice! I think the other person (in blue) is distracting a bit... waters down the group that I consider the subject. So, I'd crop up the left side a tad. But, that's just me. I like the color and the mood. Well done. ~~Lydia
