Good job, but I don't like the wrinkly background.

The 8th deadly sin? Maybe it's to abstract for me to understand, but this just looks like a mess that needs to be cleaned up.

WRATH

Great photo, but looks more like dispair or shock then wrath. He looks like someone just stole his camera, not like he wants to kill the guy that stole it. Great entry still.

Greetings from the on request Critique Club!

There is that focus problem. You meet the challenge in an obvious way here but there are a few other problems. Your editing made the image really grainy. Not sure if that was intentional or not, but with the textured wall it̢۪s too much for me. The background is the biggest downfall of the shot in my opinion. Too shiny, too much texture, and it simply draws too much attention away from your subject. As for the subject, I think the clock alone and a different title would have faired better.
I do like the shadow and that you composed it with the rule of thirds. More crisp and a different background and I̢۪d give you a 6.

Good luck and keep working on it. I̢۪m expecting you to have the top image for your camera here real soon.

The Signs of Sorrow come from the eyes

First off, excellent photo! The low score is only because you didn̢۪t even come close to meeting the challenge. If you want to score well you kind of have to meet the challenge, usually in an obvious way. In the portrait challenge this would score a 6 or 7 from me.

What I like about the image: it conforms to the rule of thirds, very well lit, I love the eyes and the way they look off out in the darkness, and the black background accents your face perfectly.

What I don̢۪t like; you said this one wasn̢۪t blurry, but it̢۪s sure not crisp either. I̢۪m assuming this is a self portrait, in that case, it̢۪s hard to focus because the camera sets the focus when you start the timer and not when you are in front of the camera. Thus, you need to set up a prop where you̢۪ll be to get the focus right, or use manual focus. Or it might be the camera, do you have problems getting images in focus normally? Also, in the title you are going for sorrow, but the image doesn't say sorrow to me. You look more optimistic or in deep thought. For sorrow, try looking down.

Look at the bright side though; you have the 6th highest scoring image ever on DPC with your camera!!!

Not Quite Sun-Up

Greetings from the Critique Club GeneralE,

Very nice scene. It seems to be missing something to give it a wow factor though. It was probably a better shot 10 minutes after you took this, but then it would have been just in time. I like the clouds, but I don̢۪t like the over all color of the photo. It̢۪s kind of a dull shade and it over powers the small spot of sun.
I like silhouette shots, but I̢۪d like to see something from the bottom coming up higher, maybe on the left side? A tree or a branch maybe? Right now it looks like a cluster of stuff along the bottom.
Overall I would have scored this a 5. It meets the challenge and it̢۪s an attractive scene but it just seems to be missing something.

I hope you find my review helpful, if you have any questions feel free to PM me.
