Between Bright and Dark

Totally agree with phinbob's assessment of this image however I feel that the sense of depth in the image could be exploited more if the image was horizontal rather than vertical.

He's saying 'Don't Mess With Me'. Good colour and contrast. Maybe a little too shallow on the DOF.

What works: colour though saturation of the red bridge could probably be increased, flow of the water, contrast and texture

Very serene.

What doesn't work: horizon seems slightly tilted to the left, dead weeds in the foreground are a bit distracting, focus seems a little soft

I like the image however the stick has no purpose (to me). I believe the image would be better without it.

The change in lighting is probably a bit too drastic between the lit part at the bottom and the shaded area. If it were more gradual, leading to the texture of the roof area I think it probably would have done better. On some monitors there may have been no detail to be seen in the middle.

For this particular challenge the image was probably a bit too subtle.

As an image, here are my thoughts.

Composition: I think you chose a good vantage point and if you look closely there are leading lines in the folds of the blanket.

Exposure: Maybe a bit too high key though the skintone seems right. More light on the blanket to bring out the folds I think may have made for a stronger image.

Impact: Subject matter I think helps here. Very sweet. Good shot for the album. For wider appeal though I think more emphasis on some of the other elements is needed (folds in blanket etc.)

You've captured great depth here. The foreground subject adds weight and colour to provide balance. One thing I would have done is have the main foreground flower more to the right. By its placement it seems to be splitting the image in half.

I like the tones and the mood though I feel it would be better if the center door was closed and out of the way.
