Negative Number?

Critique Club once again

Greetings to Iceland. You've met the challenge with this photo, lots of negative space around your main subject. I gave you a 7 for this pic because I like the yellow/blue combination.

What kind of hit me on the negative side about your image is that you centered the 13. It is exactly in the middle and I would have prefered to have seen it in one of the corners. You know, rule of thirds etc. I also think the border is a little overwhelming and pulls me away from your pic too much.

You certainly didn't deserve the 1's, 2's and 3's you got here.

See ya

Love the composition in this photo. The background is nicely blurred, even a little more blur would also have worked well. Pretty lucky getting a castle into your shot out the back there.

I like the perspective. The shallow DOF blurs out the background very effectively, a good submission.

Great idea, you hit the nail right on the head here :-) The black background works well behind the silver of the hammer and nail.

Well at least I'll give you a comment here Sher seeing no one else did. This reminds me of one of those haunted houses from the movies. Definitely old and very much "past". Does anyone live here, it looks kind of vacant.
