Hello Susie! Your photo was assigned to me in context of the Critique Club. So here it goes:

Composition: Very good. I like the palm tree on the left and also the open space to the right, where the plane flies to. It really shows "Leaving California". I think it would look even better when the plane would be a little lower below the tree, but that's only a minor issue. I guess it was hard enough to capture the plane like that.

Lighting: A nice sunset. It gives a good lighting and makes your subjects just silhouettes. I like it.

Focus: As GeneralE said: Very good focus on the plane. It almost seems to be better focussed than the palm tree. Well done.

Art: You met the challenge very well. As said above your photo really shows what the title says. So overall my "critique" is a bit short because I really can't see anything wrong. Neither technically nor artistically.

Keep shooting,
Stephan

Great shot. I like how you incorporated that tree on the left ... it helps to give it a locatoin; You don't those in Canada. Good luck. Love the orange colour. 9
