Comment by BrennanOB:
good idea, but a tighter more dramatic grouping with less empty space, and with more of a morning feel in the light (lower and more yellow) would have put this in the top contenders.

Good idea, but the composition is a little loose. I would like to see this with everything closer together, maybe the coffe cup to the right of the pencil, and the glasses on the plexers ad. This arrangement would not only be more dynamic, it would let you get away with less depth of field, so you coul use more dramatic lighting.

What an interesting find. I would have liked less background and more of the miner/

Very interesting image! I woudl have liked to see more of the sculpture's profile, but that may not have worked with the background as well. I think a tighter aperture to blur the background more would also help, as the details there are a little distracting.

I would have liked your prospective to be much closer to the miner and place him in the lower left corner. Then great.

This is so great. But it needs cropping and a closer focus. Too much background.
