I think your idea was good, it just wasn't executed very well.

I like the sentiment - a lost treasure kinda thing. The sepia toning suits it well, too, and the light is good to show off the texture of the leaves. Not as fond of the centered comp, but not sure if it would be better otherwise either.

October was sooo yesterday...

Hello from the Critique Club,

A straight on shot of a rotten pumpkin, what's not to love about that? For your chosen subject matter, I think you got about as much out of this image as there was to get. The focus and post processing are pretty good and the colors look realistic on my computer. This image falls into the not DPC friendly category, as the subject matter is not very appealing.

You need to do more than just meet the challenge at DPC to get a good score. The winners show creativity, have an interesting perspective, and tell a story. Keep entering challenges and you will find that you will improve with practice.

Feel free to send me a PM if you have any questions regarding this critique.

Tim

This seems a little understaurated. Maybe if you played a bit with the selective colour option to punch up the red a bit?

a bit more bounced light into the shadows would help the pic. DOF is too shallow for my taste.
