I like the color contrast in this image. The red and green are well defined with the black background.

Love this! I think the focus is incredible and the background and borders were excellent choices. You've taken what is an everday object (I just got hooked on triscuits - lol) and made it a work of art! Great job!

Very simple (including the bordre). I like it. I'm trying to decide if I'd like it a tad better if it wouldn't fill the frame so tightly (less tight crop). Just something to try out later. Good luck. Jacko. 8

That is probably the best closeup picture of a triscuit that I had ever seen (and probably the only). Your focus is razor sharp and the detail is excellent. I can't give you full marks though, because only one thing bothers me. IT'S A PICTURE OF A TRISCUIT! Nice job, anyway.7

Greetings from the Critique Club :)

I particularly like black and white photos. This one is nicely exposed as well. The tonal range is excellent and the positioning of your road sign also works very well in this shot.

As for your comment on lens flare, I don't think that is much of a problem at all in this photo. I don't believe anyone even commented on it :)

I don't think I can really suggest any real improvement on this shot. I like the mood it presents to the viewer... This looks like a storm near dusk possibly. I don't think it's really moonlight. The moon would not be visible during a storm :)

Excellent shot and keep up the good work!
