Dairy Barn Hill

Let me start by saying this was a very unique take on the challenge. The challenge details state "Take a photograph where the subject relates to milk or milk products" and the lack of actual dairy products may have accounted for the relatively low score.

My immediate impression of the photo was that the sign posts are a bit overpowering and could have been avoided with a little tighter cropping on the sign. A few commenters mentioned the flat contrast which I tend to agree with, particularly in the lettering of the sign. The sign also seems to get a little lost in the busy background of trees and shrubbery. Perhaps a slightly different angle that does not include the trees (if possible) could help bring more attention to the sign itself. The power lines in the upper left corner of the image also tend to draw the eye away from the sign. This also could have also been avoided with a slightly different angle and/or cropping.

Personally I like the "out of the box" thinking that led to this image and overall I think it's a good photo that could be dramatically improved with a few minor adjustments.

I look forward to seeing more of your work and good luck in future challenges!

Way to capture the emotion!!! I love it. The focus seems just a touch soft, but feels right in this particular image... I'm afraid.... point off for no "&" or "and" in title. -7

Disqualified!!!! I'm sooo sorry Martin. It was a great shot, but I'm afraid I have to agree with the SC on this one. Hey... does this mean I beat you? ;-)

Very cute little girl and I love her expression... Maybe a little more light would help emphasize that. I'm afraid the title isn't quite up to my interpretation of the rules....

Ummm... not to sure about your spelling, may want to check that one. I love the image though and the water droplets make it. I'm so so fussy on the spelling, but others may be. - 8
