Plains Of Tuscany

the 'shadowed' portion, being on the top 'half', and all the way to the left corner, does not have the 'punch' or color to 'anchor' the top left of the image.  it's almost like it's torn in half?

perhaps *lower* the contrast?  bring up the shadows? i can't quite see it happening tho..

oh, crop down to a 16x9 and loose the top 10-20% of the shadowed plains.. the 'half and half' makes for static eye-tracking for the viewer..
