Greetings from the Critique Club

Composition: Wonderfully composed, the brightness of the right horse's mane pulls the eye towards the pair. The matching curves of the horses' backs is very pleasing. The dark background helps to pull the eye towards the highlights on their backs. The cropping is interesting, the way that the subjects are offset. I'm not sure if I'd like to see more of the empty area to the left, isolating the horses more or if I'd like to see it cropped closer.

Background: The darkness of the back makes the subjects pop the forefront. The velvety grass is a great tone/texture to offset their coats.

Camera Work: (Focus/DOF/Exposure) - the focus is crisp and feels right for this shot. DOF and exposure are very good.

Post Processing: The color/saturation/contrast is perfectly appropriate for this shot. If this were not for a silhouette challenge, I might like to see a little bit more detail of the right horse's head, at least a little more highlight on the eyes and brow area.

The Challenge: A nice change from the other challenge entries that were pure silhouette with very little subject detail. It's a wonderful shot in that the left horse is the silhouette, a virtual shadow of the right horse.

My Opinion: A beautifully peaceful shot with nice detail and an easy comfortable feel. I love how the sun hits the right horse's back and we can see the texture of the coat and contours of it's back and legs.

Too blue, but the car lights, and the stars on the other lights are great.

I gave this one an 8. I'm really surprised that it didn't do better. The shallow DOF might have hurt it but it should have ranked much higher.

Can't vote because I"m not a full member but I would definitely give this a 10. It's one of my favorites for the challenge. I love the sky and the way it reflects on the building. Nice job, good luck during voting!

Very rish blue in this shot... The streetlights are also a nice touch without being distracting.

At first this picture says "wow" but then I look at those parts that should be white and I see a bit too much blue....and the sky is really saturated.... is it possible that this photo is a bit over-saturated, grainy, or both?
