Greetings from the Critique Club...

This is a nicely executed black and white. Your theme and composition work very well. Framing the amusement park inside the suspended ring is a nice touch. The only thing I don't particularly like about this composition is the proximity of the ring to the edges of the lower three borders. I personally believe that a little breathing room around the edges would add strength to the composition.

Your choice of color in the border also puzzles me a bit. Even though it's a thin line of color, it does not support any color in the image. A good border goes unnoticed. Borders that make me ask 'why' may need to be examined a little deeper. White or about any shade of gray would replace that nicely :)

Great lines! Image quality doesnt seem good and overall a little dark I think.

This photo is excellent! I really love it. I didn't get a chance to vote on it, sadly. I would have given you a 10. I love Santa Monica. I try to go at least once every 2 months, although I only live 20 minutes away (if no traffic). There is ALWAYS traffic on the 10!!! Grr. Anyhow, great job! :)
