CRITIQUE CLUB!

i think using these lamps was a really good idea for the challenge. however, i am not sure this is the most effective composition. as it is, it seems to lack impact, and there doesn't seem to be a single focal point for the viewer to refer to.

i like that you used the rule of thirds to some extent -- the lights are above the horizontal center of the image. perhaps a more effective use might have been a long vertical image with the shape of one of the lamps in the bottom third? just an idea.

i hope this helps. i'd like to see some more shots using these shapes, perhaps in pure black and white, and perhaps with one of the lamps shining on something else that has a strong shape.

this is a good shot, but not for this challenge and it's too small.

i don't think the border on this helps it at all.

i think this would be more effective with 4 green peppers and one red, but i like the idea.
