IMO, BW would have been a better choice. Still this is one scary dude and if its you, an 8 is certainly deserved for your effort.

im of the opinion that you could have cropped out the sky in this pic. Its such a great capture of the horse's shape that it doesn't seem as if the sky adds anything. just my opinion :) 8.

edit to add: After looking at this pic with and without the sky i believe your framing choice is correct. The sky provides some basis for the lighting on the horse. good job. 9

My Red Umbrella

Hi from the Critique Club

Arpita, I hardly feel qualified to critique one of your pictures but here goes :).

First impression: Nicely posed self portrait, not familiar with the literary reference(didn't take time to look up), technicals seem perfect so I won't offer a comment on them.

Composition: Eyes are perfect and I like the diagonals in this pic and their contrast with the shape of your face and hair. ONe comentator mentioned the radiating lines of the umbrella providing a focal point, and i agree. I suppose my only nitpic would be that I prefer a little more space around the subject.

Overall: The main problem(and I use the word "problem" very carefully :)) are the different shades of red. The earings match the umbrella closely, but the shirt is more pink than red, lipstick also closer to color of shirt. My guess is that had those 4 "red" elements been brought closer together color wise, your score would have increased.

That said, i looked through your portfolio and it appears that you have very solid grasp of photography. Great pics and i"m adding you to my favs.

Keep shooting!
mark
