Argoflex (Old Technology) and Old Doll

The doll is REALLY creative for this type of image! Kind of a too-tight crop on the sides and too little on the top, in my opinion, but maybe this is just how you wanted it. I like the colors.

Greetings from the Critique Club ...

I think this is great. I'm envious you have such a great place to photograph. I can picture 4 of these exact shots, one for each season, mounted and framed in my house :)

Anyway, on to my critique. I like the composition a lot. The leading lines pull you right in to the photograph. The tones are nice, it fits the challenge nicely.

Couple things I don't like: One is the signs on the right. Not much you could do about it, but they do distract a bit. And second is the sky. Shots like these are greatly improved with an interesting sky. Big billowy clouds can really give it some punch.

Well done

Very nice shot, but the steet sign is very distracting. It pulls your attention away from the tree.

I do love this. it's at the level where I can begin to be picky. The sign-post on the road is a big let down to me. You draw my eye right in, and there is a stark sign-post. I'd also prefer not to see the white on the road. Otherwise well balanced, lovely hue, and great curve. 8
