interesting how perfectly the diagonal "steps" of the balconies match the slope of the driveway. the matching color of car and brake lights right between the two columns works well. band of blue sky also feels right. This is simultaneously ordinary and perfect. fascinating.

Hey there from the Critique Club

My thoughts on the image: This is a spectacular image that finished with a well-deserved blue ribbon. I love that it is only your second entry back, and you are right back in the mix again.

My ideas for improvement: There is nothing I can offer for improvement here. The subject is phenomenal, the composition is excellent and very eye-drawing, and the technical aspects of the capture are all spot on. The smoke an haze play well to set an awesomely ominous tone to the photo.

Where I would have/did score this entry: I did vote in this one, and you were one of the three 9 scores that I gave out. The other two finished second and third. Congrats on an awesome photo, and welcome back to DPC competition!

Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric

I assume this is a long exposure - clever to use it to create an abstract. I like it. 7

Outstanding. Moody and ethereal at the same time. Excellent use of space. My only nit--those tack sharp weeds in the "foreground" of the shadows are distracting to me. I would have used a blur tool to try blending them into the tree line or just cloned them out entirely. But the image is quite effective for me even with them in.

Love the contrasts in processing, this is very well thought out and, of course, a stunning formation. Congrats.
