Alone In The Alleyby
dizneewenchComment: Hi from the Critique Club.
Please feel free to PM me with any comments or questions.
First impression: You have captured a good sense of motion in this pic. The colors on the RH side are striking.
Technicals: Considering the inherent difficulties with the zooming technique to achieve motion, you did an admirable job. Overall the picture seems a bit underexposed, but again, the night is not the easiest time to photography. I wonder if a slight bump in levels would have made the image pop. Your zoom lines are nice and clean so you did an excellent job of holding the camera steady.
Composition: I like the placement of the girls hat right in front of the light area in the BG. It really makes her stand out. An aggressive tilt would have been interesting although I find that the diagonal streaks provide a nice dynamic feel to the picture.
The Challenge Results: Not sure I can give you any advice as to what would have made this photo score well except to say that the DPC voter prefers more sharply focused subjects, even those in a motion blur challengeÆ’Ă‚Âº. Overall, I think you did a fine job of visualizing, composing, and taking this pic. A few post processing tweaks might have bumped your score but cant say for sure.
Keep shooting,
mark
