Greetings from the Critique Club :)

This photo is an excellent example of symmetry... The centered and square composition highlights they symmetrical aspects very well. I can tell that there is a lot of detail available in this image, but at this size, I feel like I'm missing out on that for sure. A nice 640x640 pixel display of this dome would definitely bring some of that detail to the foreground.

I'm guessing that this is a handheld shot from looking at your camera settings, but I'm not sure. I imagine that a tripod shot of this scene with a slightly longer exposure would bring out even more detail and it would also brighten up the hightlights as well.

Keep up the good work :)

This is a very nicely executed photo.. the depth of field nicely isolates your subject also. I would have possible used a stronger color of paint to really make the theme of 'color' punch a little harder... very nice shot :) - setzler

This is a really neat idea.. I think it would be even stronger if the lighting was either more even or more drastically defined between right and left... nice work :) - setzler

The color and composition here is absolutely perfect... the contrast of color definitely makes 'color' the primary theme in this photo as the challenge requested... great shot :) = 10 - setzler

Hi Jason...

Congratulations on a very emotive photo... Your view of symmetry in this photo is quite interesting and powerful at the same time. The mood in this image that you have created with the composition and the choice of sharp contrast black and white seems to support your feelings very strongly.

The title "Life" seems to sum up the scene in a simple and elegent word. The "life" of these cats also seems to be summed up by the mood you created here with the lighting and the black and white.

This is an excellent shot and I'm sad to see that it didn't score much higher...

Keep up the great work :)
