I don't care for the blurred effect. Maybe if it were a little less extreme, it would be more pleasing.

I am very curious to know what this photo means to you. There are no spots, so you don't seem to be concerned with the challenge, so there must be some other reason for sharing this.

Technically, there are a few things wrong with this.
1. It is over exposed. The building in the background is washed out. A faster shutter speed would help control this.
2. There is a lot of camera shake which makes this shot look blurry. This could also be helped by a faster shutter speed.
3. The composition is crooked. One mistake I often make is focusing on the subject as I look through the camera, you must remember to look at the border around the image when you are taking the picture.

I hope all of this is helpful!

Hello from the Critique Club!

This is a great perspective shot. You captured very well the idea that you are doing everything you can to listen to the very important words from the duckie. The two conflicting moods play well with each other; the seriousness of your expression, and the silliness of the rubber duck. This is enhanced even more by your choice to give this a sepia finish.

When I first looked at this, I never noticed the "irritating details" you mentioned in your notes. And even now, that I can see what you are referring to, I do not find them distracting.

Overall, well done!

I like this idea, but I think the DoF is still too deep. The dominoes on either side of the blank are very distracting.

You are probably going to get a lot of comments about how small this shot is. However, I do think it meets the challenge well and I like the colors.
