Giant
by Ricky Cleave

Comment:
COMPOSITION -CONTENT Composition fairly good gives the viewer the feeling of a Giant, content nice and clean not overly cluttered, although the size restriction gives a rather squashed distortion to this maybe a different crop without seeing the original Iam not sure!
BACKGROUND Not overly obvious but the sky is a bit washed out.CAMERA WORK -TECHNICAL - Rather to dark a lot of detail is lost in the shadows would have benefitted by some fill in flash might have been better in colour.
DIGITAL PROCESSING - TECHNICAL It appears to have been slightly oversharpened and could have benefitted from a curves adjustment to brighten it.
My opinion
I like the idea and feel if possible it should be reshot trying to get a better contrast between the light and shadows. I like the facial expression and the humour in this shot!
