I wish I could see her eyes a bit better. Good photo, but the focus feels a bit soft.

Nice photo, but your model looks like she doesn't want to be there.

The first thing that caught my eyes was the color of the flowers. And the butterflies are perfectly in focus.

A Body in Motion

Nice capture and the blur gives some motion, but the photo feels over exposed.

A little dark. But I feel that there is a lot more detail in the face and then the detail falls off as you move away form the face. I like the look, just too dark. Creepy photo!

Greetings from the Critique Club Bragi!

First Impression: Words can not explain how I initially felt about this photo... it literally took my breath away.

Composition: Awesome composition. The only thing I can complain is that the man looks like he is leaning forward instead of standing up strait. Also, there is some spots on the rocks below the waves, I wish that it was all black instead of seeing a little bit of the rock's texture. Other than that, the composition is absolutely perfect.

Subject: To me, there really isn't any specific subject... the whole image tells a story.

Creativity: I can tell you put a lot of thought into this photo. I love how you put the woody on the man's shoulder.

Improvements: Besides the few things I mentioned in the composition portion, this photo needs NO improvements.

My Thoughts: Wow... This is an amazing photo. The photo tells a story and casts a beautiful seen. I almost feel like I am there watching the sunset. I can hear and smell the sea. I can also feel the wind. The photo also also reaches me at an emotional level as well. I feel calm and collected.

Overall, this photo should have received first place in my opinion. You are a great photographers and this photo was so well done that I feel that I am not qualified to critique it.

I hope my critique has been helpful.

Cheers,
Ron

Rocking Out At A Concert

Greetings from the Critique Club Shirley!

First Impression: My first impression was that this looked like a snap shot, but a bit better.

Composition: I like the over all composition, but there are something that you might want to change. In the black area of the photo there are some white spots that are distracting that could have been cloned. Some similar spots can be seen on the edge of the overhang. The lighting is decent for what your were shooting. Exposure is good. If you didn't use a tripod, you have very sturdy hands. The red lettering above the marquee is also grainy and I would have liked to have seen entire name of the place the concert was held. It also appears that the light bulbs on the overhang were the focus point instead of the letters on the sign.

Subject: This subject really doesn't tell my anything about where art may have gone. I could see that it might be possible to assume that he went to a concert.

Creativity: This photo doesn't look overly creative to me. This looks like a snapshot and your comments reinforce that idea.

Improvements: To improve the photo, fix some of the things I have mentioned above. Use the clone tool in photoshop to get rid of the spots. You could also use USM to sharpen the photo a bit. You should have also tried to implement some of Art's personality into your photos like some of the other photographers did.

My Thoughts: This photo has potential, but because some of the fine details were overlooked, the image fell short.

Overall, it's an ok photo. I hope my critique has been help and informative If you have any questions please PM me.

Cheers,
Ron
