Not interested!by
VBesterComment: Good day! You're the recipient of a "critique club" critique! So feel free to take this with a grain of salt :D
First Impression: I'm glad that I received this one to critique -- It's a very well done shot that I enjoyed when voting, but something just wasn't right. What a great opportunity to explore this one further.
Composition: The biggest problem with this image is the disconnect between to the two people. With your title of "not interested", it's fine and perfectly acceptable that he's disconnected/uninterested. But for the picture to be really intriguing, there should be some interaction. If she was only looking at him, putting a hand out to him, somehow trying to catch his eye, then there would be so much more of a story. Right now it is two separate pictures. I do agree with an earlier commenter, he'd be much more interesting by himself. At this moment, she's just a distraction. If she was working into the story, that would be a different matter.
Subject: As above: the man is very interesting, the woman doesn't add much. Wonderful spot, though!
Technical: You did the technicals exceedingly well. I like the chosen angle, the lighting and processing are very nice.
Final thoughts: I gave this a 7 in the voting, I did find it intriguing, however the man by himself would have scored an 8 or 9 from me.
